tell me what s on your mind

The Decemberists

Hey, so great to see you again
Blown in on a wayward wind
Oh how the years have bent and bound our lives

It s been such a lonely time
But know that I m on your side
It s always a calm to confide our minds

But I don t want to bring you down
How can I bring you around
Back on to solid ground
But oh, all the days between
How can we say what we mean?
How can we learn to believe?
So breathe and now
Tell me what s on your mind
Tell me what s on your mind
Tell me what s on your mind

Wait, I don t like to see you this way
So many clouds in the way
What can I do to convey my mind?

If I, if only I could stop time
Anchor aweigh and unwind
Knowing we ll never align our minds

But I don t want to bring you down
How can I bring you around
Back on to solid ground
But oh, all the days between
How can we say what we mean?
How can we learn to believe?
So breathe and now
Tell me what s on your mind
Tell me what s on your mind
Tell me what s on your mind
