Lyrics for Out Of My Mind

In dead of night I picture all the reasons to quit But my mind's worn out the alternatives won't fit So I try to justify Feeling like a domino No matter where I lie I'm sleeping on a volcano So I go to the place where I know you'll be tonight and it makes it alright And I hear that song when I see you again It goes la da la la da da da da And you're moving just right dancing with your best friend Singing la da la la da da da da You look good You look so fine And if I don't touch you soon I'm gonna go out of my mind Out of out of my mind Out of my mind So I've rehearsed the scene I've lived it now a thousand times I see you walking my way and I forget my lines Oh but I dream of your love And I can taste your kiss And I try to forget the fact you don't even know that I exist So I go to the place where I know you'll be tonight and it makes it alright And I hear that song when I see you again It goes la da la da da da da And you're moving just right dancing with your best friend Singing la da la da da da da da You look good Oh you look so fine And if I don't touch you soon I'm gonna go out of my mind Out of out of my mind Out of my mind baby No peace no sleep my senses just torment me blind I could be good tonight if you were so inclined Take me baby, let me hold you and let me love you out of my mind So I go to the place where I know you're gonna be tonight and it makes it alright And I hear that song when I see you again It goes la da la da da da da da And you're moving just right dancing with your best friend Singing la da la da da da da da Oh you look good Oh baby you look so fine Darling if I don't touch you soon I'm gonna go out of my mind Out of out of my mind Out of my mind Baby I'm gonna go right out of my mind La da da la da da da Out of my mind baby Out of out of my mind Out of my mind
