Maybe I took for granted You'd be around To pick me up on my way down I thought my feet were planted Firmly on the ground 'Til one day my whole world came unwound And like a ball of yarn Kept neatly on a spool You held the life together Of this broken hearted fool And what once was the exception Now seems to be the rule And there's a burnin' question A fire in my mind You always had the answers The ones I couldn't find So all I'm askin' Is where are you now? What Father Time would sell me I'd take it all If only you'd come back around But then if time should spell me Well I might take the call But there's no way of knowin' where I'm bound So here comes another Fine mess I've got into And if I knew which way to turn I'd still turn to you So if everything is said and done What am I supposed to do? And that's the burnin' question On fire in my mind You always had the answers for me Time after time So all I'm askin' Is where are you now? All I'm askin' Is where are you now?
