Stop Draggin' My Heart Around

Live Loreley Festival 1992 - Some Kind Of Stranger
Medley - Stop Draggin' My Heart Around / Fix

All the people that I meet still look
I ain't got nothing better to do
Than make a meal of some bright eyed kid
You need someone looking after you

I know you really wanna tell me goodbye
I know you really wanna be your own girl
But stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around

It's hard to think about what you want
It's hard to think about what you lost
This doesn't have to be the big get even
This doesn't have to be anything at all

I know you really wanna tell me goodbye
I know you really wanna be your own girl
But stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around
