Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I first met you on the roof
You caught me in your web of youth
But now I know the wicked truth
It's much too late, so what's the use in fighting?
[Instrumental]
You peel me like an onion skin
And wonder at the state I'm in
One day, you'll turn up to begin
And find there's nothing left but innuendo
[Instrumental]
Beside you, others fade away
Like amateurs in love's charade
Much more than just a game you play
These certain rules become a way of living
[Chorus]
Night after night, I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate
[Instrumental]
The queen of sensuality
You shelter me from liberty
It's nothing short of piracy
That's not to say it doesn't please me sometimes
[Instrumental]
Now this may come as no surprise
But I'm content to compromise
Until the day you realize
That I have been manipulating you, manipulated
[Chorus]
Night after night, I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate
Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah
[Instrumental]
Night after night
After night
I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate
Night after night, I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate
Night after night, I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate
[Outro]
Tied up inside your love voodoo
