Stockholm Syndrome is the eleventh track from One Direction's album Four. During 2017-2018, Harry Styles performed the track solo during his live tour as well as on the Today Show during 2017.
Critical Reception
ANDPOP writer Evan Ross stated: "I was very concerned when I saw the title of this track. Had One Direction kidnapped a fan? And why was that fan not me? Luckily, this song seems to be about the boys being held captive by love. This song is also wickedly catchy – I love the instrumentals going on in the background. They really compliment the guys’ voices. More songs like this please, 1D!" [1]
Lyrics
[Harry]
Who’s that shadow holding me hostage?
I’ve been here for days
Who’s this whisper telling me that I’m never gonna get away?
[Zayn]
I know they’ll be coming to find me soon
But I feel I’m getting used to
Being held by you
[All]
Oh
Baby, look what you’ve done to me
Oh
Baby, look what you’ve done now
Oh
Baby, I’ll never leave if you keep holding me this way, oh o-oh
Oh
Baby, look what you’ve done to me
Oh
Baby, you’ve got me tied down
Oh
Baby, I’ll never leave if you keep holding me this way, oh o-oh
[Louis]
Who’s this man that’s holding your hand
And talking ‘bout your eyes?
Used to sing about being free but now he’s changed his mind
[Niall]
I know they’ll be coming to find me soon
But my Stockholm syndrome is in your room
Yeah, I fell for you!
[All]
Oh
Baby, look what you’ve done to me
Oh
Baby, look what you’ve done now
Oh
Baby, I’ll never leave if you keep holding me this way, oh o-oh
Oh
Baby, look what you’ve done to me
Oh
Baby, you’ve got me tied down
Oh
Baby, I’ll never leave if you keep holding me this way, oh o-oh
[Liam]
All my life I’ve been on my own
I used the light to guide me home
But now together, we're alone
And there's no other place I'd ever wanna go
[Harry]
Baby, look what you’ve done
(look what you’ve done to me)
[All]
Oh
Baby, look what you’ve done to me
Oh
Baby, look what you’ve done now
Oh
Baby, I’ll never leave if you keep holding me this way, oh o-oh
Oh
Baby, look what you’ve done to me
Oh
Baby, you’ve got me tied down
Oh
Baby, I’ll never leave if you keep holding me this way, oh o-oh
