Busy with this special thing that takes me far away,

Living for the music if the spirit's gone, why did it fade.

I see you every once in a while, so little I can say,

I know how things have gone for you, you seem so far away. [2x]



[Chorus]

Tied up, tied up in rhythm, that's my crime to you!

And everything keeps getting tied up, tied up so tight, I don't know why.



You walked beside me, every step, until a dream had found,

A spot that drove me harder, and harder I keep pushing on,

I hope you won't forget me, the way I treated you,

Until I slow down a bit, I don't know what to do. [2x]



[Chorus]



Dear shadow does it seem I've let you down,

Say lonesome, I never meant to let you down,

I'm sorry, I've taken for granted you'd be around.
