Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes - Trapped Again lyrics

(B. Springsteen/J. Lyon/S. Van Zandt)

Here I am, baby, right where you found me

Trying to break these chains that surround me

If I look a little different it's 'cause I've changed

Half-painted pictures are all that remains

I can't let my past mistakes, let 'em bring me down

I ain't waitin' on no angel of mercy

I tried my best and I can't help myself

I'm trapped again

I can't get out without losing you

I'm trapped again

Why can't you feel what I'm going through?

I'm trapped again

I need an answer, girl, can't you see?

I'm trapped again

Come and rescue me

Monday morning came so fast

What a fool to think that dreams would last

Close my eyes and it's still so clear

Remember the night, girl, the world disappeared

Can't let the hand of fate, let it drag me down

I can't get no angel of mercy

I came to stay but I got swept away

I'm trapped again

I can't get out without losing you

I'm trapped again

Why can't you feel what I'm going through?

I'm trapped again

I need an answer, girl, can't you see?

I'm trapped again

Come and rescue me

Can't let the hand of fate, let it drag me down

I can't get no angel of mercy

I came to stay but I got swept away

I'm trapped again

I can't get out without losing you

I'm trapped again

Why can't you feel what I'm going through?

I'm trapped again

I need an answer, girl, can't you see?

I'm trapped again

Come and rescue me
