Lyrics

[Verse 1]

We're caught in a trap

I can't walk out

Because I love you too much, baby

Why can't you see

What you're doin' to me

When you don't believe a word I say?

[Chorus]

We can't go on together

With suspicious minds (With suspicious minds)

And we can't build our dreams

On suspicious minds

[PreChorus]

So if an old friend I know

Drops by to say, "Hello"

Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?

Here we go again

Askin' where I've been

You can't see the tears are real

I'm cryin' (Yes, I'm cryin')

[Chorus]

We can't go on together

With suspicious minds (Suspicious minds)

And we can't build our dreams

On suspicious minds

[Bridge]

Oh, let our love survive

I'll dry the tears from your eyes

Let's don't let a good thing die

When, honey, you know I've never lied to you

Mmm, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]

We're caught in a trap

I can't walk out

Because I love you too much, baby

Why can't you see

What you're doing to me

When you don't believe a word I say?

[Outro]

Now don't you know I'm

Caught in a trap

I can't walk out

Because I love you too much, baby

[Outro]

Now don't you know I'm

Caught in a trap

I can't walk out

Because I love you too much, baby

[Outro]

Now don't you know I'm

Caught in a trap

I can't walk out

Because I love you too much, baby

[Outro]

Now don't you know I'm

Caught in a trap

I can't walk out

Because I love you too much, baby

[Outro]

Now don't you know I'm

Caught in a trap

I can't walk out

Because I love you too much, baby

[Outro]

Now don't you know I'm

Caught in a trap

I can't walk out

Because I love you too much, baby
