Lead Me On

(album: I'm No Angel - 1987)

Baby you ain't the same girl
I knew yesterday
Somehow, somewhere
You picked up on same dangerous ways
I'm always caring
Each and every day
I give you all of my love
And you throw it back in my face

Oh... where have I been going wrong
Every girl, I've ever known
Has wound up leading me on

I... ain't getting no stronger
And you only give me just enough
To keep me holding on longer
Tell me why... do you have to lead me on
Tell me why can't you find it in yourself
To just leave me alone

Your promises
Mean less than nothing to me anymore
Lately, I've been wondering
What am I wasting my good time for
Over and over again
I catch you in your evil lies
This whole charade is over
Baby, goodbye

Oh... where have I been going wrong
Every girl, I've ever known
Has wound up leading me on

I... ain't getting no stronger
And you only give me just enough
To keep me holding on longer
Tell me why... do you have to lead me on
Oh why can't you find it in yourself
To just leave me alone

I... ain't getting no stronger
And you only give me just enough
To keep me holding on longer
Tell me why... do you have to lead me on
Oh why can't you find it in yourself
To just leave me alone
