To have and not to hold. So hot yet so cold. My heart is in your hand. And yet you never stand. Close enough for me to have my way. To love but not to keep. To laugh not to weep. Your eyes they go right through. And yet you never do. Anything to make me want to stay. Chorus:. Like a moth to a flame. Only I am to blame. Ba ba da ba ba ba. What can I do?. Ba ba da ba ba ba. I go straight to you. Ba ba da ba ba ba. I've been told. You're to have not to hold. To look but not to see. To kiss but never be. The object of your desire. I'm walking on a wire. And there's no one at all. To break my fall. (chorus). You're to have not to hold. You're to have not to hold. (chorus). You're to have not to hold. You're to have not to hold. You're to have not to hold. To break my heart
