Lyrics

Are we really sure Can our love that lasted for so long still endure Do I really care, hey, hey Let's talk about the distractions going on elsewhere I keep hearing footsteps, baby In the dark, oh in the dark Why, I keep hearing footsteps, baby In the dark, oh in the dark My mind drifts now and then Looking down dark corridors and wonders what might have been Something's up ahead Hey, should I keep this same direction or go back instead I, I keep hearing footsteps, baby In the dark, oh in the dark Why, I keep hearing footsteps, baby In the dark, oh in the dark Honey let's stop walking around When there's love lost to be found Oh, and you know I still care, I still care What's the sense of going elsewhere Who feels really sure Can that feeling guarantee your happiness shall endure And do we really care, hey, hey Let's look at what's been happening and try to be more aware I, I keep hearing footsteps, baby In the dark, hey, in the dark Why, I keep hearing footsteps, baby In the dark, oh in the dark Hey, let's stop walking around, yeah Well when there's love lost, lost to be found Oh honey, you know I still care, I still care What's the sense of going, going elsewhere Oh honey, let's stop walking around, and around and around When there's no love to be found Hey baby, you know I still care, I still care What's the sense of going, going elsewhere

Notice

I tabbed this by ear with help from YouTube user IsleyTribute's video explaining some of the chords. This took quite some time to finish so I hope you like it. The two guitars each play their own pattern with small variations, so I tabbed each measure to replicate the original. I did the same with percussion, bass and trumpet so it should be exact. I couldn't hear enough of what the keyboard and the clavinet were doing to finish that track, but I left it in for the chords in the verse and chorus which are important.
