"Love Hostage" Lyrics

Before we get down to business
Let's understand the rules
I like my independence
And I ain't nobody's fool

Now don't misread my intentions
I'm planning to love you
The floodgates are open
But you better play it cool

I'm not your love hostage
Watch me just walk away
I'm not your love hostage
So if you want me to stay
Don't put my heart in chains

Don't pin me down with suspicion
Or tangle me in lies
If you really want me
You got to realize
That I'm not your love hostage
Watch me just walk away
I'm not your love hostage
So if you want me to stay
Don't put my heart in chains

I'm not your love hostage
Watch me just walk away
Don't make me your love hostage
Or I'll just walk away
I'm not your love hostage
So if you want me to stay
Don't make me your love hostage
Or I'll just walk away
