Clearly Quite Absurd

[Verse 1]

After all we said today

The strangest thought occurred

I feel I ought to tell you

But it's clearly quite absurd

Wouldn't it be wonderful

If you could read my mind?

Imagine all the stuff

That we could leave behind

[Chorus]

How many words you waste

Before you're understood

Or simply sow some seeds

You'd do it if you could

Let me take a moment of your time

Inside your mind

[Verse 2]

I know what you're thinking

But I don't know what to say

The turmoil and the conflict

You don't have to feel this way

Look into my eyes

And feel my hand upon your heart

Holding us together

Not tearing us apart

[Chorus]

How many words we waste

To justify a crime

Compare it to an act of love

That really takes no time

Why not take a moment to unwind?

Inside your mind

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

How many words I wasted

You don't want to hear

Why not sit in silence, while the muddy walls clear

Why not take a moment to unwind?

Inside your mind

[Outro]

After all we said today a strange thought occurred

I feel that I should tell you that it's clearly quite absurd

[Instrumental Outro]
