Quicksand

Quicksand Lyrics

(Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland, Jr.)

Oooooh-oooooh (ooooh)
Oooooh-oooooh (ooooh)

You're like quicksand, quicksand
Pulling me closer, closer
In your arms
Can't resist your loving charms
You're like quicksand
Sinking me deeper
In love with you

The more I fight it,
The deeper in love I get
Each time you hold me,
I feel nothing but happiness
It's not safe loving you this way
But from your arms, I can't stay

You're like quicksand, quicksand, yeah,
Pulling me closer, closer,
Making me love you,
Need you
(Deeper) Sinking me deeper, deeper
In love with you

Oooooh-oooooh
(Deeper, deeper, deeper
In love with you)

My heart is a prisoner
Of your warm embrace
I can't help, can't help myself
Nothing can take your place
When you say sweet things to me,
I start trembling from head to feet

You're like quicksand, quicksand, yeah
Pulling me closer, closer
I just can't resist you
I just want to kiss you
You're like quicksand, yeah

Quicksand, quicksand
Quicksand, pulling me closer
Quicksand, quicksand
Quicksand, pulling me closer
Deeper, deeper
Deeper, deeper in love with you
Deeper, deeper
Deeper, deeper in love with you
(fade out)
