Somebody tell me
What has this man got
He makes me feel
What I don't wanna feel
Somebody tell me
What has this man got
He makes me give
What I don't wanna give

On solid ground
I feel myself sinking fast
I grab a hold
But I don't think it's gonna last
I'm slowly losin' my ground
Slowly sinkin' down
I'm trapped by this thing called love
Ooh, baby

(Hooked on this thing called love)
(Hooked on this thing called love)

Somebody tell me
What has this man got
He makes me cry
Lord, I don't wanna cry
And somebody tell me
What has this man got
He makes me lie
When I don't wanna lie
He calls me up
And I tell 'em to say that I'm not in
Then I cry all night
If he doesn't call again

I'm slowly losin' my ground
Slowly sinkin' down
Trapped by this thing they called love
Oooh, baby

I'm slowly losin' my ground
Slowly sinkin' down
Trapped by this thing they called love
Oooh, baby
Trapped (hooked on this thing call love)
I can't help myself
Hooked on you, baby
(Hooked on this thing called love)
I just can't help myself
(Hooked on this thing called love)
I can never be happy with nothin' or no one else
(Hooked on this thing called love)
