Lonely spider waiting in her web
Hoping she can catch some happiness
Then who should stumble into here but you

Got you where I want you
Got you where I want you

Lovely lady spider likes you best
Begs you to come live in her own nest
Feeds you clothes you gives her heart to you

Got you where I want you
Got you where I want you

Don't know why you put up such a fight
Make the lady spider cry all night
You never have to be alone again

Got you where I want you
Got you where I want you

Lonely spider waiting in her web
Hoping she can catch some happiness
Oh, when will happiness come by again?

    It's a beautiful song about a lady that is desperately loving someone and that person does not share the same feelings. Being possessive (like a spider), she hopes she can catch "you" and keep you like her own prey. But you refuse her and she remains lonely and unhappy... "Oh, when will happiness come by again?"
