[Verse 1]
Like a cable car runnin' through my mind
You're stoppin' at every place in town
Somethin' I can't put my finger on
You're sittin' right here next to me
You might as well be a ghost in my dreams
Baby, how'd I let you get so gone?

[Chorus]
Tell me
Where did I lose, where did I lose
Where did I lose you?

[Verse 2]
Was it three years ago in Santa Fe?
Or early morning yesterday?
It don't matter anyway, you're gone
Are you lost at the bottom of a crackerjack box?
A dime story nobody wants
Is that baby, how I made you feel?

[Chorus]
Please tell me
Where did I lose, where did I lose
Where did I lose you?
[Bridge]
Are you folded at the top of a laundry basket?
Sweepin' the floors of a three-bedroom house that
Keeps you crying all day long
Have you been crushed by one weaker car?
Have you done everything but come undone?
All I know is you're gone

[Verse 3]
We were perfect as a blood-red rose
But dreamers in thorns are hard to hold
Tell me, baby, I need to know

[Chorus]
Please tell me
Where did I lose, where did I lose
Where did I lose you?
Where did I lose, where did I lose
Where did I lose you?
Where did I lose, where did I lose
Where did I lose you? Oh

[Outro]
Where did I lose, where did I lose you?
Tell me
Where did I lose, where did I lose
Where did I lose you?
