The 77s - Caught in an Unguarded Moment lyrics

I saw you smiling From the corner of your mouth In the corner of my eye (You didn't know that it was there) But I would hope that you appreciate The fact you were appreciating One who "did not see" And so you did not care But you were Caught in an unguarded moment You didn't know it would show But you were Caught in an unguarded moment Your incognito went right Out of the window As I saw a young man standing On a crowded bar room floor He was getting less and less Thinking he was getting more And when all at once He heard a sound Exploding from the stage He'd been taken unawares And with no time to prepare But he'd been Caught in an unguarded moment He wasn't ready to go But he was Caught in an unguarded moment He had no time to say "No" When I saw a young girl fly Over a rocky mountain brink She had had too much to drink She did not have time to think But it was far more than just her car That flew out of control She had gone over the edge Long before she'd lost her soul She was Caught in an unguarded moment Her fate was inapropos But she was Caught in an unguarded moment She'd been a pleasure to know But she was Caught in an unguarded moment She made a brief cameo But she was Caught in an unguarded moment Something she did not foreknow And now she's Caught in an unguarded moment All fall down like dominoes And now she's Caught in an unguarded moment Eternal sorrow and woe
