You Think Lyrics

You think you're the buoy in the ocean of my dreams

That I am like a sinking ship at sea

Every time I kiss you, honey, I taste salt water and fish

Pass the tartar sauce or let me up for air

You think you're the syrup on the pancake of my desire

That I am melted butter in your pan

Well, the butter is better but the batter ain't never what it's cracked up to be

No runs, no hits, two errors retires the side

And I'm oh so glad that you think these things

Though like tales, thoughts are often tall

Yes, I'm oh so glad that you think these things

'Cause it's a wonder that you can think at all

You think you're the water in the desert of my being

That I am like a cactus without thorns

But when it rains, it's hot and more often than not what's falling down on me

Looks more like fertilizer than H2O

You think you're the sun in the world of my affairs

That I am just a planet drawn to you

But the sun can blind and you don't mind all I'm lookin' to find right now

Is a pair of sunglasses and a tube of suntan oil

And I'm oh so glad that you think these things

Though like tales, thoughts are often tall

Yes, I'm oh so glad that you think these things

'Cause it's a wonder that you can think at all

You think you're the ink in the diary of my life

That I am just a pen that has gone dry

Well, I write you all day and you wrong me all night

But words are picture postcards from our minds

You think you're the fuel in the furnace of my lust

That my pilot light will always burn for you

But you're so damn hot I freeze to death, Susanna, don't you cry

Put a sweater on and turn that heater down

And I'm oh so glad that you think these things

Though like tales, thoughts are often tall (you know they are)

Well, I'm oh so glad that you think these things

'Cause it's a wonder that you can think at all

And I'm oh so glad that you think these things

Though like tales, thoughts are often tall

Yes, I'm oh so glad that you think these things

'Cause it's a wonder that you can think

It's a miracle that you can think

No, I didn't think that you could think at all
