Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Ooh, all your moves, all your moves

Swept me up in a frenzy

Ooh, letting loose, letting loose

Lost in that jungle wild and sexy

Learned a savage lesson

When the brightest heaven

Becomes dark obsession

It’s a noose, it’s a noose

I can feel you breathing down my neck

Watching me too close, I don’t like that

Holding too tight

Your jealous eyes, keep on spying

Look over my shoulder every step

Think I’m gonna suffocate to death

I try to break free, but I can’t leave

You keep digging those damn claws in

Now I’m in strangled love

And I’m cursing your name

You got me tangled up

In a lovers cage

Oh I’m so choked

You won’t let me go

Now I’m in strangled love

But don’t take your hands off me

You animal, animal

Kicked off a chain reaction

Ooh, Magical, magical

Keep coming back to raw attraction

Such a fiery lover

La la like no other

I can’t seem to smother

Such a powerful hold

I can feel you breathing down my neck

Watching me so close I don’t like that

Holding too tight

Your jealous eyes, keep on spying

Look over my shoulder every step

Think I’m gonna suffocate to death

I try to break free, but I can’t leave

You keep digging those damn claws in

Now I’m in strangled love

And I’m cursing your name

You got me tangled up

In a lovers cage

Oh I’m so choked

You won’t let me go

Now I’m in strangled love

But don’t take your hands off me

You're needy, you're greedy

You're doing what you like

Wild passion, raw power

Kneel to them, I just might

Keep filling that cup with my favourite wine

I quit you once, quit you twice

Still let that poison go down

Now I’m in strangled love

And I’m cursing your name

You got me tangled up

In a lovers cage

Oh I’m so choked

You won’t let me go

Now I’m in strangled love

But don’t take your hands off me

Now I’m in strangled love

But don’t take your hands off me
