QUICKSAND

Martha Reeves and the Vandellas

Written by Holland/Dozier/Holland



Oo-oo ooo ooo who-oooh!

Oo-oo ooo ooo who-oooh!



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.



MUSIC INTERLUDE



Oo-oo ooo ooo who-ooooh!



(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

A- just can't resist you

A-just want to kiss you



You're like quicksand, yeah!



Oo-oo ooo ooo who-ooooh!



Quicksand, quicksand, yeah

Sinking me deeper

Sinking me deeper

I just can't resist you

I just want to kiss you



Oo-oo ooo ooo who-ooooh!
