There's Something On Your Mind

Текст песни Etta James - There's Something On Your Mind

There is something on your mind
By the way you look at me
There is something on your mind
By the way you look at me
And what you're thinking brings happiness
And it brings misery

Please don't try to tell me
I think I understand
No, no, don't try to tell me
'Cause I think I understand
You want me to try and forget you
Well, I'll do the best I can

You know, it hurts you when you're in love with someone
And you know that someone don't love you
It carries a heavy burden on your heart to know
That the someone that you're in love with
Is in love with your best friend

And I'll tell you
When someone else is rockin' your cradle
You know better than you can rock your cradle yourself
Then there's only one thing for you to do
You just pack your clothes, turn around
And slowly walk out of the door
Look over your left shoulder as you go out
Then you hang your head and you say

Please don't try to tell me
I think I understand
No, no, please don't try to tell me
Because you think, you think I understand
You want me to try, to try to forget you, baby
And I'll tell you, I'll do the best I can

You know, after you have done all you can do
And you can't take no more

Then you go downtown, you get your big baseball bat
And you come back on the scene where they both are still together

And then you just go and kick down the door
And as you kick down the door
You just start beating the hell out of everybody that you can see

Everybody that comes through the door
And just as you make up your mind that you're gonna try to forgive her
Then out comes another one of your friends
And that really blows your mind, so you go and think about it
You say to yourself, "Babe, I realize I've done wrong
But please forgive me"
And with a smirky smile on her face
Then she look up at you and she say

If you ever think about me
Oh, I think about you, baby
If you ever change your mind
Oh, you're stayin' on my mind, baby
If you ever think about me
Oh, I think, I think about you all the time
If I ever cross your mind
Mm, you're stayin' on my mind
Well, you know, you know, you know I'm yours
And I know, I know you got to be mine

There is something on your mind, B
I can tell by the way you look at me
Oh, there's something on my mind, B
There is something on your mind

Oh, can you tell there's something on my mind
By the way you look at me
Oh, the way I look at you, you look good to me
And what you're thinking brings happiness
Yes, baby
Oh, it can bring misery
Yes, alright
