I can't get you off my mind today
It's funny how we learn to say the things that push us far away
From all we want and all we shouldn't need
But you're all I want and everything I want to be
And she said, "did you hear the sky is falling?
And no one's come to save me from your face"
And he said, "did you see the sun stop burning
When it stepped outside and saw an angel fall from grace?"
And some days there is nothing left to say
So I sit and dream and make believe that you are not so far away
From all I want and all that I should need
Now all I want is something I can't be
And she said, "did you hear the sky is falling?
And no one's come to save me from your face"
And he said, "did you see the sun stop burning
When it stepped outside and saw an angel fall from grace?"
Broken and crawling out
A token of all your doubt
Chasing the fear within
And fighting the tears without
And she said, "can't you see the shame I hide?
No, cause you're too wrapped up and tangled in your travesty
Of a life you say you want to leave behind
And so you'll run away and leave you on my mind
On my mind..."
I can't get you off my mind today
