Lyrics for What’s On Your Mind

You know sometimes I can¡¯t get to sleep at night
I can¡¯t quiet my heart or my mind
I toss and turn, I ache and burn
I get caught in the passing of time
It¡¯s like too many miles, too many heartaches
Too much that needs to be done
Yes and too many sidewalks, too many people
Too many hours done
What¡¯s on your mind
What¡¯s on my mind
Is really quite the same
I¡¯ve been working so hard
And I¡¯m ready to play
I know just the right game
What¡¯s on your mind
Is what¡¯s on my mind
That¡¯s the way it¡¯s gonna be
I¡¯m gonna find me a place I can hide
I want you right next to me
On I¡¯ve never seen a more beautiful day
It¡¯s my favorite time of year
The colors are changing, she¡¯s rearranging
And I¡¯m so glad to be here
I¡¯ve been up and around, I¡¯ve been lost, I¡¯ve been found
I¡¯ve seen love face to face in my dreams
And the things that I know and the things that I show
Are not always just what they seem
What¡¯s on your mind
Is what¡¯s on my mind
It¡¯s just that way
It¡¯s like catching a ride
On a beautiful river
Let it carry us all away
What¡¯s on your mind
And what¡¯s on my mind
Is really nothing new
I want to get you alone
I want to make you my own
Baby, I want to make love with you
What¡¯s on your mind
And what¡¯s on my mind
Is really quite the same
I¡¯ve been working so hard
And I¡¯m ready to play
Baby, I know just the right game
What¡¯s on your mind
And what¡¯s on my mind
Is really nothing new
I want to get you alone
I want to make you my own
Baby, I want to make love with you
I can¡¯t quiet my heart or my mind
I toss and turn, I ache and burn
I get caught in the passing of time
It¡¯s like too many miles, too many heartaches
Too much that needs to be done
Yes and too many sidewalks, too many people
Too many hours done
What¡¯s on your mind
What¡¯s on my mind
Is really quite the same
I¡¯ve been working so hard
And I¡¯m ready to play
I know just the right game
What¡¯s on your mind
Is what¡¯s on my mind
That¡¯s the way it¡¯s gonna be
I¡¯m gonna find me a place I can hide
I want you right next to me
On I¡¯ve never seen a more beautiful day
It¡¯s my favorite time of year
The colors are changing, she¡¯s rearranging
And I¡¯m so glad to be here
I¡¯ve been up and around, I¡¯ve been lost, I¡¯ve been found
I¡¯ve seen love face to face in my dreams
And the things that I know and the things that I show
Are not always just what they seem
What¡¯s on your mind
Is what¡¯s on my mind
It¡¯s just that way
It¡¯s like catching a ride
On a beautiful river
Let it carry us all away
What¡¯s on your mind
And what¡¯s on my mind
Is really nothing new
I want to get you alone
I want to make you my own
Baby, I want to make love with you
What¡¯s on your mind
And what¡¯s on my mind
Is really quite the same
I¡¯ve been working so hard
And I¡¯m ready to play
Baby, I know just the right game
What¡¯s on your mind
And what¡¯s on my mind
Is really nothing new
I want to get you alone
I want to make you my own
Baby, I want to make love with you
