Lyrics

Taken in, taken in again Wrapped around the finger of some fair-weather friend Caught up in the promises, left out in the end No pride, taken for a ride You say I'm the only one when I look in your eyes I want to believe you, but you know how to lie And if you say you understand, I don't believe it And when you reach out for my hand, I don't believe it And if you say you take the blame, I don't believe it And if you say that nothing's changed, I don't believe it, don't believe it Taken in, taken in again Someone saw me coming, a fool without a friend There's one born every minute and you're looking at him And if you say you want me near, I don't believe it And when you're holding back the tears, I don't believe it And when you swear that you are mine, I don't believe it And it's your heart that's on the line, I don't believe it, don't believe it Taken in, taken in again Wrapped around the finger of some fair-weather friend Caught up in the promises, left out in the end No pride, taken for a ride You say I'm the only one when I look in your eyes I'd love to believe you, but you know how to lie You say you want me near, I don't believe it And when you're holding back the tears, I don't believe it Oh, there's one born every minute, you're looking at him Taken in, taken in again Someone saw me coming, a fool without a friend I want to believe you, ooh When you say you understand When you reach out for my hand Oh, I wish I could believe you Taken in, taken in again
