how come i end up the way i started?
how come i end up where i belong?
dont take your eyes off the ball again
you reel me out and you cut the string

how come i end up the way i started?
how come i end up when i went wrong?
dont take your eyes off the ball again
you let me out and you cut the string

you used to be alright
what happened?
did the cat get your tongue?
did your string get undone?

one by one
one by one
slow procession
silence is golden

you used to be alright
what happened?
etcetera etcetera
thats for whatever
15 steps then a sheer drop

how come i end up where i started?
how come i end up where i belong?
won't take my eyes off the ball again
you bring me in then you let me in
