Your Mind Is Full Of You

I can't live up to the dream in you,

Though I'm more than what you see.

I ain't enough to see you through,

So I guess you'll have to be.

I never asked you to understand.

Never asked you to give.

You never cared for the things I'd planned.

You had your own life to live.

 

When you thought that I couldn't see

Your eyes said what was true.

Your talk is full of "us" and "we"

But your mind is full of you.

 

If a lonely man reached out to you

Would you help him on his way?

If we hear a brother call for help,

Don't you think we ought to stay?

If my life and soul were in your grasp,

How do you think I would fare?

Would you hold me tight in your python clasp

And leave me lying there?

 

When you thought that I couldn't see

Your eyes said what was true.

Your talk is full of "us" and "we"

But your mind is full of you.

 

So it comes back down to this, my friend:

You never understood.

I ain't got any more time to spend.

I never said that I would.

I've had enough of the games you played.

Our time together is through.

Forget all the plans you made.

This is not up to you.

 

When you thought that I couldn't see

Your eyes said what was true.

Your talk is full of "us" and "we"

But your mind is full of you.
