Lyrics: Joan Armatrading. You Rope, You Tie Me.

Don't stand in my way, let me pass, easy
Don't try to block, trip or check me baby
No counter action gonna handicap me baby
You know I'm traveling light, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You're a lion in my path, in my light, 'scuse me
Don't upset, don't embarrass me baby
Don't show your body, your body don't make it
You know I'm moving on right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You know we started out good
We were in love with all the world
All of a sudden, it was out of control
I started to lie because you couldn't see the truth
Oh, woah, woah, what a sad world

You get too jealous, you patronize me
Let me get away
You get too jealous, you drive me crazy
Let me get away, let me get away

Don't stand in my way, in my light, 'scuse me
You get too jealous, you patronize me
You get too jealous, you drive me crazy
You get too jealous, you rope, you tie me
You get too jealous, I need to be free

Let me get away, let me get away
You know we started out good
We were in love with all the world
And all of a sudden, it was out of control
I started to lie because you couldn't see the truth
Let me get away, I'm trying to get away
