IN THE MIND’S EYE.
I read her signals all wrong
I could’ve swore I was right
I went for off – she went on
And I was blind to the light.
She wanted holding real hard
And all I did was back off
I guess she grew far too tired
Of what’s an on and off love.
In the mind’s eye I saw her crying
I saw her love as it was dying.
In the mind’s eye I saw her trying…
To forget me…
To get me to the back of her mind
But all she can find is pain
And I know it’s me to blame!
She couldn’t laugh – she just cried
I know I love her real bad
But it’s too late now it’s died
And it’s what I could’ve had.
I know I’m the fool
I know I’m a mess
I know I’m the fool
Cause I couldn’t guess…
It was love
It really was love!
