Why was I so naive
Every day I fought a losing battle
Like getting blood from stone
Tell me why I always end up
Flying round in circles
Oh man I should've known
He went unnoticed as he crept back late to bed
And I thougt I was going crazy
That it was all just in my head

Chorus:
That boy from across the street
He used to bring me down
With the soles of his feet
He's got me running around
Like a merry-go-round
And I'm lonely, lonely, lonely
That boy had me under a spell
He had me on a string but I could never tell
He's got me running around, feeling so down
Yes I'm lonely , lonely, lonely

Every day he told me
I can't believe that you don't even trust me
So there I was thinking it must be me
Every day he'd point a finger at me
Oh man I couldn't believe
All of the tricks that he had pulled
From out of his sleeve
And its clear that he bewitched me
When he made a fool out of me
CHORUS

His magic's taking over me
He's got me under a spell
Now I can't break free from his cruelty
