Verse
Early in the morning clouds are dropping on my head
reminding me the things last night I should have left unsaid
so please forgive the words I used my mind it tends to run
away with small ideas I know I'm not the only one
Chorus
so dear, oh dear
my head it tends to stray away sometimes I can't see clear
oh dear, oh dear
in spite of all the things I say I always want you near
Verse
Sometimes it rains sometime it pours, sometimes I'm not that sure
but anytime you look at me your thoughts I can't ignore
the second hand would pass us by should one of us had blinked
but in a minute realize that true love always waits
Chorus
my dear, oh dear
my head it tends to stray away sometimes I can't see clear
oh dear, oh dear
in spite of all the things I say I always want you near
