Taken In

Christopher Neil / Mike Rutherford

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
(I don't believe it)
And if you say you take the blame, I don't believe it
(I don't believe it)
And if 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
(I don't believe it)
And when you're holding back the tears, I don't believe it
(I don't believe it)
And when you swear that you are mine, I don't believe it
(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
(I don't believe it)
And when you're holding back the tears, I don't believe it
(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, 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
