Ya see a pair of laughing eyes
And suddenly
you're sighing sighs
You're thinking nothin's wrong
You string along boy then SNAP
Those eyes those sighs
They're part of the tender trap
You're hand in hand
beneath the trees
And soon there's music
in the breeze
You're actin' kind of smug
Until your heart just goes WHAP
Those trees that breeze
They're part of the tender trap
Some starry night
When her kisses make you tingle
She'll hold you tight
And you'll hate yourself
for being single
And all at once it seems so nice
The folks are throwing
shoes and rice
You hurry to a spot
that's just a dot on the map
You wonder how
But it's too late now
You fell in love
and love is the tender trap
And I'm trapped wish you
