[Verse 1]
We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
[Verse 2]
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
(Don't believe a word I say)
[Chorus]
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (With suspicious minds)
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
[Verse 3]
Should an old friend I know
Stop in, say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eye?
Here you go again
Asking where I've been
You can see the tears I cry
(See the tears I cry)
[Chorus]
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (With suspicious minds)
And be can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
[Bridge]
Oh, let our love survive
I dry the tears your cryin'
Don't let this good thing die
You know I've never lied to you
No, No, No-oh-oh
[Verse 1]
We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
[Verse 2]
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
(Don't believe a word I say)
[Chorus]
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (With suspicious minds)
And be can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
[Outro]
Caught in a trap
I can't walk out (Ooh)
Because I love you too much, baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't want to believe a word I say?
I'm caught in a trap, mmh
And I can't walk out
Why? Because I love you too much, baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
(Ooh baby-baby yeah)
We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
[Verse 2]
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
(Don't believe a word I say)
[Chorus]
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (With suspicious minds)
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
[Verse 3]
Should an old friend I know
Stop in, say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eye?
Here you go again
Asking where I've been
You can see the tears I cry
(See the tears I cry)
[Chorus]
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (With suspicious minds)
And be can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
[Bridge]
Oh, let our love survive
I dry the tears your cryin'
Don't let this good thing die
You know I've never lied to you
No, No, No-oh-oh
[Verse 1]
We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
[Verse 2]
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
(Don't believe a word I say)
[Chorus]
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (With suspicious minds)
And be can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
[Outro]
Caught in a trap
I can't walk out (Ooh)
Because I love you too much, baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't want to believe a word I say?
I'm caught in a trap, mmh
And I can't walk out
Why? Because I love you too much, baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
