He Took Advantage (Blues For Ronald Reagan)

Glenn Frey

I should have known from the start 
He'd find a way to your heart 
He said that he was a friend 
That was a lie in the end 
He told you I was untrue 
Then took advantage of you 

He looked you right in the eyes 
And told those beautiful lies 
The way he made you feel 
You thought his love was real 
He was too good to be true 
He took advantage of you 

It's a lowdown dirty shame he doesn't have to pay 
For being so deceitful and treating us this way 
He used us and betrayed us and made it seem alright 
He turned his back on everyone 
I don't know how he sleeps at night 

And now he's walking away 
He doesn't care what we say 
We weren't too hard to deceive 
We wanted so to believe 
He was too good to be true 
He took advantage of you
