With suspicious minds (with suspicious minds)
And we can’t build our dreams
On suspicious minds

歌詞方面

填詞作曲由 Mark James 一手包辦

We’re caught in a trap
I can’t walk out
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?

We can’t go on together
With suspicious minds (with suspicious minds)
And we can’t build our dreams
On suspicious minds

So, if an old friend I know
Stops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?

Here we go again
Asking where I’ve been
(You can’t see the tears are real, I’m crying)
(Yes, I’m crying)

We can’t go on together
With suspicious minds (suspicious minds)
And we can’t build our dreams
On suspicious minds

Oh, let our love survive, oh no
I’ll dry the tears from your eyes
Let’s don’t… (I’m hating that, I mean)
(This time I didn’t remember why, do you?)
(Yeah, yeah)

We’re caught in a trap
I can’t walk out now, sure no
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?

Don’t you know I’m caught in a trap?
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, baby

Caught in a trap
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much

Caught in a trap
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, babe

Don’t you know I’m caught in a trap?
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, baby

Caught in a trap?
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, baby

Don’t you know I’m caught in…
I can’t get out
I hoped it soon, don’t tear up, baby

Don’t you know I’m caught in a trap?
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much
