How come I end up where I started How come I end up where I went wrong Won't take my eyes off the ball again You reel me out and you cut the string.
How come I end up where I started How come I end up where I went wrong Won't take my eyes off the ball again First you reel me out and then you cut the string
You used to be all right What happened? Did the cat get your tongue? Did your string come undone? One by one One by one It comes to us all It's as soft as your pillow
You used to be all right What happened? Et cetera et cetera Friends forever! Fifteen steps Then a sheer drop
How come I end up where I started? How come I end up where I went wrong Won't take my eyes off the ball again You reel me out and you cut the string.
