Mystified


[Music: C.Ingles, W.B.Allman Lyrics, Vocal Melodies: C.Cadden-James]

I was calling just to say I loved you
I know you're out there tonight
Long time ago I held you tight
My heart knows of a broken promise
I know of fortune that came and went
too far with my emotion
Who could ignore the cold

Every time you missed the love I sent I
scanned the windows won't forget I
curse the moment I felt you turn to stone
wakin' up to the sound to the sound of a broken heart
Ifound out it was time to say goodbye

Now I'm standing here mystified
Woman you hurt me
You traded my love alive
Never understanding why
feel the hard cold steel of pain
It cuts me don't you know
Leave me mystified once again
Mystified you made me go

All I wanted was a chance to say I think of you
she won't see me and she sure won't speak my name
she's all lost in a world so condescending
that's a price I cannot afford to pay

I was calling just to say I loved you
but I don't know if you're out there tonight
This scene slowly fading out of sight
no longer crying my tears of cold remorse
that distant place in my heart still hurts of course
I do believe I will turn and say goodnight

Now I'm standing here mystified
Woman you hurt me
You traded my love alive
Never understanding why
feel the hard cold steel of pain
It scars me don't you know
Leave me mystified once again
Mystified you made me go
