When I'm in the dark
Sometimes I feel like a hostage
Keep me in the dark
          G#          A#
I want to feel like a hostage

    Fm
The night and the dark appreciate
The light and the heat we generate
    G#            A#
My heart and soul cooperate

I want you to be happy

I just want to give myself to it
I'll come when you call me a little bitch
It gets me when you whisper it
I want you to be happy

   Fm
I want you, I want you
I want you to be happy
I want you, I want you
I want you to be happy

The day and the night don't separate
This ache for you starts to dominate
I'm finding it hard to concentrate
I want you to be happy

I wait for you like a prisoner
Whatever it is that moves in us
It's starting to feel a lot like love
I want you to be happy

Sometimes I feel like a hostage
When I'm in the dark
Sometimes I feel like a hostage
Point it at my heart

Chorus

Fm
Sometimes I feel like a hostage
Sometimes I feel like a hostage
Sometimes I feel like a hostage
