Intrusion / Confusion - Sparks

I’m going back to see my girl

I hope it’s all the same as then

I’m going back to see my girl

I hope it’s all the same as then

Confusion, pardon the intrusion

This must not be the room I was in the other night

Confusion, an optical illusion, you see, you see

The number’s the same as then

The color’s the same as then

But something just isn’t really right

Retrace your steps and see what happens, happens

Right from the doorway to your home

Back to your lonely room with only confusion

Was that her (yes, yes it was)

Was that him (yeah, yeah it was)

The girl was familiar but he wasn’t me, no

Confusion, you think you know where you stand

But you’re not even standing, you’re flat on shaky ground

No clue then, and everything you knew then

Was only true in specialized cases, yes, in specialized cases

But in your case it wasn’t true at all

Retrace your steps and see what happens, happens

Back to the day when you were born

Father and mother were just pictures, photos

The color was (the same as yours)

The surname (same as yours)

But you got the feeling, the feeling, the feeling

Confusion, la de da

Confusion, oh pardon me

Confusion, la tati

It’s lovely sitting next to you

There’s no one within miles of you

It’s lovely sitting next to you

There’s no one within miles of you

Confusion, you think you know where you stand

But you’re not even standing, you’re flat on shaky ground

No clue then, and everything you knew then

Was only true in specialized cases, yes, in specialized cases

But in your case, in your case

It wasn’t the case, not at all
