You swore you'd never again, let yourself be tempted, Too many times in the past when you've opened up your heart -- You've had it broken in pieces, by too many lies, Still it's hard to acknowledge the past -- When she flashes those eyes, Over and over the song skips, Just as the final refrain fades away -- Like fools we are caught in the game *Caught in the game, Caught in the game again -- Caught in the game, Caught in the game* I swore I'd never again catch myself believin' Too many times I've been hurt -- and it makes you hard inside But when I saw you in the city tonight -- Was it just imagination -- Or did your eyes burn a little too bright, For purely conversation -- Over and over the lights flash down at the corner arcade Swept away -- Like fools we are caught in the game ( * Repeat) Over and over the song skips Just as the final refrain fades away. Like fools we are caught in the game ( * Repeat)
