I'm trying to imagine
What it's like to live inside your head
But I can't get near you
So I sit here and make you up
Instead

I'm lying in my bed

With songs about you
Ooooh
Songs about you

I find myself repeating
Simple things I'd love to hear
You say
But you don't ever say them
You don't want to give yourself away

I hear then anyway

In songs about you
Oooh
Songs about you

I can put words into your mouth
I can make you say whatever
I want
I can twist the truth around
I can make everything work out

With songs about you
Ooooh
Songs about you

I wasn't thinking of you
I didn't miss you until you came along
And took me over
You took my hands and voice
And made this song

I'm just singing along

To song about you
Oooh
Songs about you
