Tender Trap Lyrics

Paul Young

TENDER TRAP

When I wake in the morning time you're the only thing that lights my mind.
In a daze in the afternoon you creep into my inside.
When alone all the things I do are the actions of a man possessed
with the thought of a girl like you to satisfy my loneliness.

When I'm lost in your world and I can't let go
I'm in a tender trap.
And when you show the law no escape for sure
I'm in a tender trap.
Na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na-na-na.
Yes, I'm caught in the tender trap.

If I said what was on my mind would you smile at me or turn away?
Just one touch can electrify and your only choice will be to stay.
Let us hide for a day or two and think of all the things we'd share.
All there'll be is just me and you and nobody else would give a care.

When I'm lost in your world and I can't let go
I'm in a tender trap.
And when you show the law no escape for sure
I'm in a tender trap.
Na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na-na-na.
Oh, I'm caught in the tender trap.

Yeh, I'm caught in the tender trap.

When I'm lost in your world and I can't let go
I'm in a tender trap.
And when you show the law no escape for sure
I'm in a tender trap.
Na-na-na na-na-na na-na-na-na-na.
I'm caught in the tender trap.

NA-NA-NA NA-NA-NA NA-NA-NA-NA-NA
Yes, I'm caught in a tender trap.
NA-NA-NA NA-NA-NA NA-NA-NA-NA-NA
And I can't let go, I'm caught in a tender trap
NA-NA-NA NA-NA-NA NA-NA-NA-NA-NA
I will never let you go, I'm in a tender trap.
(repeat & fade)
