I've waited oh so long 
for you to come to me 
What did I do wrong 
It's all a mystery to me 

Baby I feel it too 
What am I supposed to do 
Maybe I've just changed 
Or could I be wrong for you 

You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
I'm not your plaything 
You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
Am I your plaything 

You never told me you were waiting,contemplating 
With my heart,my love 
You never told me you were waiting,contemplating 
With my heart,my love 

Do you mean to say 
that after all this time 
i've waited like a fool 
now who's been changin' you 

You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
I'm not your plaything 
You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
I aint your plaything 

You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
I'm masquerading 
You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
I aint your plaything,whoa 

You never told me you were waiting,contemplating 
You never told me you were waiting,contemplating 

Come on, child 
Take me by the hand 

You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
I'm not your plaything,no,no,no 
You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
Hang on,hang on, yeah 

You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
I'm not your plaything 
You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
You never told me 

You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
You never told me you were waiting,contemplating 
You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
You never told me you were waiting,contemplating (I'm not your plaything) 

You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
You never told me you were waiting,contemplating 
You,you've got me hangin' on a string now 
You never told me you were waiting,contemplating
