taking in the party

he put me down for awhile

100 watts of ambition

springing off his smile

his lips hooked set to kiss me

but he closed up like a fist

he's got a fortune in charm

and makes a gift out of empty arms

but i was sold, i was sold, no one had to convince me

bendng over backwards

i watched the light burn out

his excuses fell like diamonds

brilliant, cutting, lost and found

he's got a fortune in charm

and makes a gift outof empty arms

but i was sold, i was sold, no one had to convince me

(i don't believe it)

(believe it)
