Tighten Up (Electro-Vox Sessions) Lyrics

[Whistling]

[Verse 1]
I wanted love, needed love
Most of all, most of all
Some would say true love was dead
Now I'm bound to fall
Oh bound to fall for you
Yeah, what can I do

[Verse 2]
Take my badge, but my heart remains
Lovin' you, baby child
Tighten up on your reins
You're runnin' wild, oh runnin' wild
It's true

[Verse 3]
Sick for days, so many ways
I'm aching now, I'm aching now
It's times like these I need relief
Please show me how, oh show me how
To get right
Yeah, it's out of sight

[Verse 4]
When I was young and moving fast
Nothing slowed me down, oh slowed me down
Now I let the others pass and I'll come around
Oh come around, cause I found
[Bridge]
Living just to keep going
Going just to be sane
All thе while not knowing
It's such a shame
I don't need to get stеady to know just how I feel
Telling you to be ready
My dear

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
