Got you on my conscience where you wanna be

there in spite of all you've done to me

got you on my bad side and you're leading me

so misleading, you're so contagious now


baby, maybe these simple words will never reach your ears

you'll never have the time to hear my plea

I've got you on my mind


I just wrote you this letter

I just wrote you this note

with a chance for a change and a splinter of hope

but you'll fake this indifference

you'll fake apathy

so I'll turn a deaf ear

turn away from your plea


baby, maybe these simple words will never reach your ears
