I hope you're happy on top, this time
I thought we'd left those games behind
but if you like, this time
I'll play the one called change a-your mind

Why did you take my love,
if you didn't need it?

I see you're playing the part, these days
of how it's always been a-this way
you stick to the script - okay
but I miss the things you used to say

Why did you take my love,
if you didn't need it?

I feel I've woken up
I feel I'm winding up
I feel like making a start today
now all the old dreams wandered away
but so many roads - which way?
I open my mouth and all I can say

Why did you call my name,
if you didn't mean it?

I feel I've woken up
I feel I'm winding up...

Why did you take my love,
if you didn't need it?
oh, why did you take my love?
