"Lately" lyrics
Lately I've been thinkin' 'bout you, baby
I can't keep my mind on other things
People say it's best to let your thoughts run free
But mine spin 'round in tight concentric rings
Those stories that your confidants have told me
They don't inspire confidence, my dear
Maybe you should go your way and I'll go mine
And wait until the coast is mostly clear
But deep inside, I know I'll always love you
It's like a light that's shining from above
It's got me thinkin' I'm no good without you
Those arms of yours still fit me like a glove, so
Lately I've been thinkin' 'bout you, baby
My mind should really be on other things
But waiting's such a lonely way to spend your time
Just wonderin' what tomorrow's gonna bring
Lately, I've been thinkin' about you
(Just about you, baby)
My mind should really be on other things
(Just about you, baby)
People say it's best to let your thoughts run free
(Just about you, baby)
But mine spin 'round in tight concentric rings
(Just about you, just about you, just about you, baby)
Those stories that your confidants have told me
(Don't tell me stories)
They don't inspire confidence, my dear
(Don't make me feel so good)
Maybe, maybe you should go your way
(Maybe you should go your way and I'll go mine)
And I'll go mine
(Maybe you should go your way and I'll go mine)
Then we'll wait
(Wait until the coast is finally clear)
Until the coast is mostly clear
(It's ever clear, it's ever, ever, ever clear)
Let's say you
But deep inside, I know I'll always love you
It's like a light that's shining from above
It's got me thinkin' I'm no good without you
Those arms of yours still fit me like a glove, so
Lately I've been thinkin' 'bout you, baby
My mind should really be on other things
But waiting's such a lonely way to spend your time
Just wonderin' what tomorrow's gonna bring
Just wonderin' what tomorrow's going to bring
I can't keep my mind on other things
People say it's best to let your thoughts run free
But mine spin 'round in tight concentric rings
Those stories that your confidants have told me
They don't inspire confidence, my dear
Maybe you should go your way and I'll go mine
And wait until the coast is mostly clear
But deep inside, I know I'll always love you
It's like a light that's shining from above
It's got me thinkin' I'm no good without you
Those arms of yours still fit me like a glove, so
Lately I've been thinkin' 'bout you, baby
My mind should really be on other things
But waiting's such a lonely way to spend your time
Just wonderin' what tomorrow's gonna bring
Lately, I've been thinkin' about you
(Just about you, baby)
My mind should really be on other things
(Just about you, baby)
People say it's best to let your thoughts run free
(Just about you, baby)
But mine spin 'round in tight concentric rings
(Just about you, just about you, just about you, baby)
Those stories that your confidants have told me
(Don't tell me stories)
They don't inspire confidence, my dear
(Don't make me feel so good)
Maybe, maybe you should go your way
(Maybe you should go your way and I'll go mine)
And I'll go mine
(Maybe you should go your way and I'll go mine)
Then we'll wait
(Wait until the coast is finally clear)
Until the coast is mostly clear
(It's ever clear, it's ever, ever, ever clear)
Let's say you
But deep inside, I know I'll always love you
It's like a light that's shining from above
It's got me thinkin' I'm no good without you
Those arms of yours still fit me like a glove, so
Lately I've been thinkin' 'bout you, baby
My mind should really be on other things
But waiting's such a lonely way to spend your time
Just wonderin' what tomorrow's gonna bring
Just wonderin' what tomorrow's going to bring
