Tell me what's on your mind
You're wondering how to make it last
Forget about all your old problems
No sense in dwelling in the past
I heard your footsteps on the pavement
As you walked on by my door
I don't mean to seem impatient
It's just I wish I saw you more
All the strangers that surround me
Couldn't try to understand
So come and put your arms around me
Put your hand inside my hand
Tell me what's on your mind
Are you trying to make the feeling last?
You watch things change as you get older
And they slip further from your grasp
Now the wind up bird is calling
The dogs are barking in the night
So I switch off the world around me
Shut it all out of my sight
Tell me what's on your mind
All the strangers that surround me
Couldn't try to understand
So come and put your arms around me
Put your hand inside my hand
All the strangers that surround me
Couldn't try to understand
So come and put your arms around me
Put your hand inside my hand
Tell me what's on your mind
