Tracy Chapman - Thinking Of You lyrics

rate me

About what's real and true

What can not be proven

What can be assumed

Once when I was younger

In the bloom of youth

I received an honest answer

When a lie would do

Chorus:

And now all I do is sit

In my darkened room

And on accasion break my silence

To howl at the moon

To curse every nerve

And neuron in my brain

That won't stop the pain I'm feeling

And let me stop thinking

I used to think

Galileo would agree

That the world was round

And you'd come round to me

But I have looked for you

And you're nowhere in sight

The world must be flat

The Babylonians were right

[Chorus]

I used to think

Consider gravity

If I placed you on a pedestal

You'd slip and fall for me

But you floated on the air

Far away at light speed

I guess some objects do defy

The laws that we conceive

[Chorus]

I used to think

It took all my time

Analysing you

Your mind on my mind

Your name my mantra

Repeated on my lips

That once tried to kiss you

A memory unrepressed

[Chorus]

Stop thinking of you

Stop thinking of you

Stop thinking of you
