The 77s
Caught in an Unguarded Moment (Live)
[Intro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

[Verse 1]
I saw you smiling from the corner of my mouth
In the corner of your 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
And you were

[Chorus 1]
Caught in an unguarded moment
You didn't know it would show
You were
Caught in an unguarded moment
Your incognito went right
Out of the window
[Verse 2]
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 unaware
And with no time to prepare
But he'd been

[Chorus 2]
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"

[Hook]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 3]
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
Whoa, oh

[Chorus 3]
Caught in an unguarded moment
She'd made a brief cameo
But she was
Caught in an unguarded moment
She'd been a pleasure to know
She was
Caught in an unguarded moment
Something she could not have known
She was
Caught in an unguarded moment
Oh no
Now she's
Caught in an unguarded moment
All fall down like dominoes
And she's
Caught in an unguarded moment
Eternal sorrow and woe
[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
