Thinking of You

Tracy Chapman

1. About what's real and true 
   What can not be proven 
   What can be assumed 
   Once when I was younger 
   In the bloom of youth 
   I received an honest answer 
   When a lie would do 
   
R: And now all I do is sit 
   In my darkened room 
   And on accasion break my silence 
   To howl at the moon 
   To curse every nerve 
   And neuron in my brain 
   That won't stop the pain I'm feeling 
   And let me stop thinking 
   
2. I used to think 
   Galileo would agree 
   That the world was round 
   And you'd come round to me 
   But I have looked for you 
   And you're nowhere in sight 
   The world must be flat 
   The Babylonians were right 
R:
   
3. I used to think 
   Consider gravity 
   If I placed you on a pedestal 
   You'd slip and fall for me 
   But you floated on the air 
   Far away at light speed 
   I guess some objects do defy 
   The laws that we conceive 
R: 
   
4. I used to think 
   It took all my time 
   Analysing you 
   Your mind on my mind 
   Your name my mantra 
   Repeated on my lips 
   That once tried to kiss you 
   A memory unrepressed 
R:
   
   Stop thinking of you 
   Stop thinking of you 
   Stop thinking of you
