Lyrics

He: I never felt so close to you
She: I never been so far away
He: and I know what you're going through..
She: so is that all you can say to me? is that all you can say to me?

He: I used to know you when
She: but you turned your back on me
He: I just got turned around myself..
She: then what do you expect of me? just what do you expect of me?

They: it's a crazy world we live in
It's a crazy road we take
We could walk this way blinfolded, down by the great mistake

She: you used to be my hero, boy, 'til you parked the car in the lake
He: that wasn't strictly my idea, you know. I parked
Down by the great mistake
She: you should've used your emergency brake

They: there'll be a lot of compromisin'
And if that don't sound enticing
Your money ain't no good here, down by the great mistake

He: I think it's gonna work out just fine
She: you can think that way if you like
He: what would make you say a thing like that?
She: I'm not sayin' anything. I'm not sayin' anything

They: there'll be a lot of compromisin'
And if that don't sound inviting
We can walk this way blinfolded, down by the great mistake
