Come to me Monique and I’ll tell you a secret that I haven’t told for a while

I could use a soft ear and a warm gentle mouth to hold in my deepest desire

And don’t confuse me, it’s dark but I could swear that you’re lying right here by my side

Don’t forget me when you’re out there looking for love in another man’s eyes

And I’m playing it now and it’s that old sweet song

And I’ve been singing it out for way too long

Now my chords are all wrong and my words have all gone

And it’s just a melody that’s dancing around in the back of my mind

The back of my mind

So come closer Monique you can believe when I speak because I couldn’t tell you a lie

I have the heart of a fighter who’s been fighting too long and he’s ready to lay down this time

And you’re right about me, it’s easy to see why you’re happy just playing your part

And I’ll watch from afar cause when I’m chasing your star I know I am beat from the start

And I’m playing it now and it’s that old sweet song

And I’ve been singing it out for way too long

But my chords are all wrong and my words have all gone

And it’s just a melody that’s dancing around in the back of my mind

The back of my mind

If I can’t hold out Monique it’s just cause I’m weak and I feel like my head is on fire

And too you I am new and I know that that’s true but it feels like I’ve known you a while

So I’m trusting in you though I might be a fool well I feel like this feeling is right

But I’ve been wrong before and I’ll do it again I just can’t stop singing tonight

And I’m playing it now and it’s that old sweet song

And I’ve been singing it out for way too long

But my chords are all wrong and my words have all gone

And it’s just a melody that’s dancing around in the back of my mind

The back of my mind
