"Body And Mind" lyrics

"Body And Mind"

Truly I believe now in looking back
When it came to knowing how I need to act
"She was the one, she was the key
She opened doors she saw in me"
Hold up in a room with the curtains drawn
Making it clear nothing to be worn
"She was the one, she made the call
She set it up, she did it all"

How could I resist what I saw unfold?
If it's in letters, it would be bold
No surprise in doing what I was told
And on the day you'd have to say it's good to be
Two of a kind, body and mind

Who provided me with a crust for life?
When the food is love and the love is denied
"She was the one, she paved the way
She led the charge, she made it pay"
Who took hold of all I was clinging to
Opened my eyes to what I could view
"She was the one, she had the brief
She saw what in, she saw relief"

And in spite of years having been and gone
She's still who to belong
The only one I would want
To spend the rest of what is best for us to be
Partners entwined, body and mind

"No use wondering is there something
That between us doesn't work"
Only nowhere is where that could lurk

Who'll make me an offer I can't refuse?
No horse's head needing to be used
"She is the one, she rules the roost
She if it's down, she gives a boost"
And what if there was something that needed doing
And what it required, mountains needed moving?
"She is the one, she makes the case
She runs it in, she sets the pace"

Never in the wildest of my dreams
Could I have seen what I've seen
Been where it's to I have been
And on the day you'd have to say, it's good that we're
Partners entwined, body and mind
Body and mind
Body and mind
Body and mind
Body and mind
Body and mind
Body and mind
Body and mind
Body and mind
Body and mind
