It's broken I know what you want I'm not a yo-yo I'm not a thing you let go I keep hanging around Got some attachment to you Way down is still where you get through I told myself it isn't right but isn't wrong Yet I've found The more you hug and call me The more I need protecting Can't hear myself singing the same sad song Oh, and it's not hard to figure out Why I am never too far from the floor You can only take me up and down I've got to move forward So I've cut the cord It's broken And I can't let that hope in I know what you want I'm not a yo-yo I'm not a thing you let go You're leaving me no choice then I'll be on my way I'm not a yo-yo I don't come back when I'm thrown I keep hanging around But can't defy gravity Rebound everytime you touch me I've told myself it isn't right but isn't wrong The more you high and low me The more I need stability Can't hear myself singing this for too long Oh, and now you've come to face the fact But I'm running fast as I can to the door 'Cause you wanna swing me up and back And I've got to move forward So I've cut the cord It's broken And I can't let that hope in I know what you want I'm not a yo-yo I'm not a thing you let go You're leaving me no choice then I'll be on my way I'm not a yo-yo I don't come back when I'm thrown I'll be on my way I'm not a yo-yo I'm not a thing you let go Didn't I adore you Didn't I bend to keep you satisfied Didn't I Didn't I assure you For every climb there is a downward slide that I can't ride Didn't I adore you Didn't I bend to keep you satisfied Didn't I Didn't I assure you For every climb there is a downard slide I had to cut the cord I know what you want I'm not a yo-yo I'm not a thing you let go You're leaving me no choice then I'll be on my way I'm not a yo-yo I don't come back when I'm thrown I know what you want I'm not a yo-yo I'm not a thing you let go I'm not a thing you let go I'm not a thing you let go I'm not a thing you let go I'm not a thing you let go Oh no no I'll be on my way I'm not a yo-yo I'm not a thing you let go I'm not a thing you let go I'm not a thing you let go I'm not a thing you let go I'm not a thing you let go I'm not a thing you let go
