1978 Lyrics

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.

And I know just how you'd get
back at me
If I said 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"

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.
And it's too late.

and all that I have left
to give you now
to 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.

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."

If I told you that this song was about you.
(you'd cry and say, cry and say)
its been done and it's too late.
