I said oh girl
don't leave me in this world
Dont leave me here alone
I need a hand.
I said oh boy
Don't try acting coy
You weren't the same the other day
and this I just cant stand
so I hope you'll understand
I say oh girl
don't play with me this way
Your words are in my head to stay
Don't make me plead
I said oh boy
(oh girl)
I've heard it all before
if I walk out this door
I wonder how long you'll wait
chorus:
Can you read my palm
and put my mind at ease?
(Can you read my mind?)
Can you piece me back together?
(x2)
I say oh girl
dont tell me you're in trouble
my mind's been in a muddle
ever since you've been gone
I say oh boy
I see that youre pain
that doesnt mean you're not to blame
but I'm still on your own
I say oh girl
if this is not the end
should we carry on pretending
would it piece us here?
I said oh boy
I'm sure I meant this time,
Rest your clouded head on mine
You have nothing to fear.
chorus (x2)
