It starts off slow with a kiss of folly
And you don't see it as more
But after awhile when all the dogs
See you sneaking in the back door
You don't believe
When they tell you
You don't believe
Then a world of trouble is all you see
Nights, when the phone rings
And it's so easy to get up
And go back again
You don't stop, you don't think
To live without it
Knowing that you'll never win
You don't believe
When they tell you
You don't believe
Then a world of trouble is all you see
This is the last time or the beginning
Whenever you say, it's enough
While each day, each month
Rolls out behind you
The lost time is calling your bluff
You don't believe
When they tell you
You don't believe
Then a world of trouble is all you see
A world of trouble is all you need
