1978

She said, "Take a step back, but please keep me in frame."
So I spent the next five years standing in your way

I walked in with you alone
I'm walking out with you alone
I walked in with you alone
I'm walking out with you alone

And I know just how you'd get back at me
If I told you that these songs were about you
You'd cry and say:
"I never meant to make you feel this way."
You'd cry and say:
"Well, it's been done and it's too late."

Take a step back, but please keep me in frame
(Keep me in frame, keep me in frame)
And I spent the next five years standing in your way

I walked in with you alone
I'm walking out with you alone
I walked in with you alone
I'm walking out with you alone

And it's too late

And all that I have left to give you now
Is a poor gift and that's myself

She said, "Take a step back, but please keep me in frame."
(Keep me in frame, keep me in frame)
And I spent so many years just standing in your way

You walk in with me alone
And you walk out with me alone
You walk in with me alone
And you walk out with me alone

What if I told you this song was about you?
(You'd cry and say, cry and say)
"I never meant to make you feel this way."

What if I told you that this song was about you?
(You'd cry and say, cry and say)
"Well, it's been done and it's too late."
