You've got a hold of me, don't even know your power
I stand a hundred feet, but I fall when I'm around you
Show me an open door, then you go and slam it on me
I can't take anymore
I'm saying, baby, please have mercy on me
Take it easy on my heart
Even though you told me to hurt me
You keep tearing me apart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
Would you please have mercy
You keep tearing me apart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
I drive through the night just to be near you, baby
Heart open, testify
Tell me you love me

That I'm not crazy
I'm not asking for a lot
Just that you're honest with me
And my pride is all I got
I'm saying, baby, please have mercy on me
Take it easy on my heart
Even though you told me to hurt me
You keep tearing me apart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
Take it easy on my heart
Even though you told me to hurt me
You keep tearing me apart
I'm begging you for mercy, mercy
I'm begging you, begging you, please, baby
I'm begging you for mercy, mercy
Oh, I'm begging you, I'm begging you
But you keep tearing me apart
But you keep tearing me apart
I'm begging you for mercy, mercy
Oh, my heart
I'm begging you for mercy, mercy
