I tell myself that I’ve had it
There is no future in loving you
I’ve got to decide where I’m going
I’ve got to get out find someone new

But back in the same old trap I fall
Like a fool I run everytime he calls
And I do it all

For the feeling
The sweeter better thing I’ve had before
[1) ………….] running back for more
For the feeling
He rings back everything I feel inside
[2)…………] till I’m satisfied
When will I learn?
That hearts that play in fire can burn
For the feeling
For the feeling
For the feeling
For the feeling

I tell myself I can’t take it
[3)…………….] night too long
I throw up my hands
Oh can I give up?
Just when I do yeah
He rings the phone

Then back in the same your trap I fall
Like fool I run everytime he calls
And I do it all

For the feeling
The sweeter better thing I’ve had before
He keeps on coming back for more
For the feeling
He rings back everything I feel inside
[2)…………] till I’m satisfied
When will I learn?
That hearts that play in fire can burn
For the feeling
For the feeling
For the feeling
For the feeling

[reese]

[1] [Keeps me] running back for more.
[2] [Rock me] 'till I'm satisfied.
[3] [???] you six nights alone.

[smallworld]

I tell myself that I’ve had it
There is no future in loving you
I’ve got to decide where I’m going
I’ve got to get out, find someone new

But back in the same old trap I fall
Like a fool I run, every time he calls
And I do it all

For the feeling
It's sweeter than anything I’ve felt before
Keeps me running back for more
Ooh, the feeling
It brings out everything I feel inside
Rock me till I’m satisfied
When will I learn?
That hearts that play with fire get burned
By the feeling
The feeling
By the feeling
By the feeling

I tell myself I can’t take it
One night of you and six nights alone
I throw up my hands, oh
And I give up
Just when I do, yeah
You ring the phone

But back in the same old trap I fall
Like a fool I run, every time you call
And I do it all

For the feeling
You're sweeter than anything I’ve felt before
He keeps me coming back for more, yes he does
Ooh, the feeling
I feel it building up inside [This is a best guess, the lyric is not very intelligible]
Rock me till I’m satisfied
When will I learn?
That hearts that play with fire get burned
By the feeling [etc.]

Sounds like a tv theme song

Wow, what a great track, never heard it before. Love the energy! And yeah, it does kinda sound like a TV show scheme glen.

Also, it would have taken me about 11 days to transcribe the lyrics to this track. :p
