Tell me anything you think I wanna hear

Just to keep me standin' here

To secure your shaky fears



Tell me you love me, but in your heart you know you don't

So you lie 'cause you think I want

To make believe you love when you don't



Lead me on, lead me on

Lead me on, lead me on

I'll play along and along and along

Baby lead me on

Lead me on



Pretend it's rainin' when the tears flow from my eyes

And you're warm when you're cold as ice

And everything's gonna be alright



And it's a shame, little Johnn wears my name

And you know I'm not the one

Still you say he is my son



Chorus



And when I leave to go work for you

You cry you're lonely too

To make me feel your love is true



But in your dreams you slip and tell it all

I hear you calling out his name

You say you love him loud and plain



Chorus
