"Get You Off My Mind" lyrics

I've been waiting
Waiting here for you
Seems like lately
It's all I ever do
Maybe I'll never learn
But now there's nowhere to turn
What am I looking for?
Why won't you open the door?

Lost and lonely
Not a soul in sight
Arizona
Sure gets cold at night
What was that number again?
I can't remember the PIN
I need to get some cash
I gotta get away fast

I was flying, but you shot me down
The misadventures of a tragic clown
Hanging around outside with nowhere to go
I fell asleep on a bed of lies
Dreaming of the girl with the far away eyes
I woke up to the sound of the radio
I never knew you could be so unkind
And now there's something that I'm trying to find
I need a little something just to get you off my mind

I read your letter today
And then I threw it away
I don't believe that it's true
What am I gonna do?

I was flying, but you shot me down
The misadventures of a tragic clown
Hanging around outside with nowhere to go
I fell asleep with the radio on
I never got to hear my favorite song
I gave it all I had with nothing to show
I didn't know that you were playing a game
I flew a little too close to the flame
Maybe I never should have crossed the line
I need a shot of something just to get you off my mind
