| TAKEN ABACK |
It's been two whole years
Since you and I shared fears
Two-thirty A.M.
Talking 'til sleep inside that diner
And now in your eyes I can't find you
Sorry that I'm taken aback
But how I am, you never ask
And I don't need such sympathy
But a care would be so nice to have once in a while
You mean more to me than I could ever tell
So sorry that I'm taken aback
But I just can't help it
Small town we just ride
Holding on to what we had inside
But now it's never there
So should I admit
Do I believe I, too, am the culprit
Because now in your eyes I can't find you
Sorry that I'm taken aback
But how I am, you never ask
And I don't need such sympathy
But a care would be so nice to have once in a while
You mean more to me than I could ever tell
So sorry that I'm taken aback
But I just can't help it
Someday this will go away
And everything I am will just leave and fade
And I hope then you will understand
It's not everything I am, my dear, only friend
Sorry that I'm taken aback
But how I am, you never ask
And I don't need such sympathy
But a care would be so nice to have once in a while
You mean more to me than I could ever tell
So sorry that I'm taken aback
But I just can't help it
