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 Im 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 dont believe it
And when you reach out for my hand I dont believe it
And if you say you take the blame I dont believe it
And if say that nothings changed I dont believe it, dont believe it

Taken in, taken in again
Someone saw me coming, a fool without a friend
Theres one born every minute and youre looking at him

And if you say you want me near I dont believe it
And when youre holding back the tears I dont believe it
And when you swear that you are mine I dont believe it
And its your heart thats on the line I dont believe it, dont 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 Im the only one when I look in your eyes
Id love to believe you but you know how to lie

You say you want me near I dont believe it
And when youre holding back the tears I dont believe it
Oh, theres one born every minute, youre looking at him

Taken in, taken in again
Someone saw me coming, a fool without a friend
I want to believe you, oh
When you say you understand
When you reach out for my hand
Oh, I wish I could believe you
Taken in, taken in again
