Can't Get My Mind Around You Lyrics

I saw a foreign movie

at my girlfriend's place last night
through smooth pictures in a

dream of black and white

saw this girl with the clean soul

of a maharani queen

she reminded me of someone

I know

the lines she was reading

seemed to reach just this man

though her painted lips hung

words I couldn't understand

and a I turned out the station

swear she spoke to me alone
she said 'please, ain't it time you

come home'

for the doorway I started

light headed and heavyhearted

can't move on, can't get through

I just can't get my mind around you

I could feel myself falling,

it's my spirit that's been cut
torn through shattered muscle to

put the ginger in my blood

now my baby calls me,

and my name falls down like rain

'cause I'm back in your soft

smile again

and on my soul you wage your war

with your nerve gas and your

mortar

and I can't fight, I can't move

I just can't get my mind around you
