Lyrics

you stole a record of me
while I was carrying on
I caught a glimpse of you leave
just like that you were gone
what a fool I had been
thought i'd see you again

I stood there waiting for you
and though I know better now
don't have much of clue
where you went to or how
what a fool I had been
thought i'd see you again

Where do we belong?
anyone could tell us but they’re probably wrong
who am I to say
if you and I had met in some old fashioned way
just what might a been

we all need someone to love
why am I governed by fear?
you stole a record of me
and now the future's unclear
I coulda taken a shot
but barely gave it a thought

so will a pattern emerge
or will a puzzle piece fall?
for all my faith in the world
I don't know nothing at all
except the iron was hot
coulda struck but did not

Where do we belong?
anyone could tell us but they’re probably wrong
who am I to say
if you and I had met in some old fashioned way
just what might a been

I stole a record of you
and kept it locked in my head
built a life for us there
it's probably better instead
I woulda blown it I'm sure
if I had known who you were

Where do we belong?
anyone could tell us but they’re probably wrong
who am i to say
if you and I had met in some old fashioned way
just what might have been
