If you just get it together and read my mind
Then sleeping would be easy
And then I´ll be there to acquiesce
I confess I´m in trouble

Another afternoon of increments
And asking the wrong questions
Then you get up and leave again
Just as the evening threatens to set

Consider this now it´s not too late
I have watched you change
The colour of the trap

I have learned to wait
Most of the things that you say
I don´t understand but I will sit and listen
I nod along attentively
But the truth is I cant concentrate

Consider this now it´s not too late
I have watched you change
The colour of the trap

I have learned a way, make no mistake
I have learned to wait and learned you can make me
I need something to sort me out
I need someone to come and shake me

And your exit calms me down
Before it infuriates me
Girl, I´m in trouble
Wish you´d just get it together and read my mind
