Intro: verse 1 Taken in, taken in again Wrapped around the finger Of some fair-weather friend 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 Solo: 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 Solo: Taken in, taken in again Wrapped around the finger Of some fair-weather friend 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, believe it And when you're holding back the tears I don't believe it, 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, 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
