[Verse 1]

The moment we meet

Notice the sparks start to fly

Turn into heat

It's gonna get cute, you and I

Comes time to leave

Unaware hours gone by

Done the best to stay

Out of my own way

[Verse 2]

Starts with a phone call

Sided with caution, three day wait

Certain you'll soon fall

Not gonna leave this up to fate

Picture together

All of my problems you erase

I don't hear a peep

Guess I'll get some sleep

[Chorus]

And every time I drop

Into pieces over nothing at the top

With belief that this is something, but it's not

Lie awake and I am wasting time

Lying to my mind, lying to my mind

[Verse 3]

The very next weekend

My call finally gets returned

My will has been weakened

You'd think that by now I'd have learned

She says we can be friends

Bringing about my concern

Never had control

Back to feeling low

[Chorus]

And every time I drop

Into pieces over nothing at the top

With belief that this is something, but it's not

Lie awake and I am wasting time

Lying to my mind, ooh, lying to my mind

[Bridge]

There is a so fine line

Built to give way by design

That you walk at your own risk

Of being left out in cold

Or so I've been told

I guess I haven't been told

No, no

[Chorus]

And every time I drop

Into pieces over nothing at the top

With belief that this is something, but it's not

Lie awake and I am wasting time

Lying to my mind, ooh, lying to my mind

Ooh, lying to my mind

[Outro]

Lying to my mind
