[ Tekst: Tony Burton ]
Called you in the morning but there was nobody home
And if you ain’t around I guess you spent the whole night on the town
Tell me why do you keep hiding from the person that you are
If you faced up to the trouth you’d be better off by far
Are you still out there looking for something that can not be found
You better realize that it’s only yourself you’re letting down
Take me for granted take me for a fool
Don’t take me nowhere at all
You don’t take me nowhere
Now you say you don’t want me when you say you really do
No matter how I try I can’t figure out what’s troubleing you
No don’t get me wrong don’t you dare say that I’m unkind
I can’t waste my whole life while you try to make up your mind
You see I ain’t your shadow and there’s plenty like you on the shelf
You ain’t cheating me honey, you’re out there cheating yourself
Take me for granted take me for a fool
Don’t take me nowhere at all
You don’t take me nowhere
