The Thinker

THE THINKER LAYS AWAKE AT NIGHT
POND’RING MYSTERIES OF LIFE
THE DAYS ARE LONG WITH DEEP THOUGHTS TOO
MOSTLY THOUGH HE THINKS OF YOU

THE THINKER WANTS TO PROBLEM-SOLVE
THINKS THAT HE CAN FIX THEM ALL
REGRETTING THINGS HE CANNOT DO
MOSTLY THOUGH HE THINKS OF YOU

CHORUS1:
THE ONE WHO TAMES HIS RESTLESS MIND
MAKES HIM FEEL HIS LIFE’S WORTHWHILE
THEN HE’LL GO CONTEMPLATING SOMETHING NEW
MOSTLY THOUGH HE THINKS OF YOU

HE’LL SIT RIGHT THERE AND WANDER OFF
SOMETIMES DOESN'T HEAR YOU TALK
SEEKING SOME ELUSIVE CLUE
MOSTLY THOUGH HE THINKS OF YOU

CHORUS2:
THE THINKER KNOWS YOU UNDERSTAND
AND YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN
AND HE’S COMPLETELY PUZZLED BY THAT TOO
MOSTLY THOUGH HE THINKS OF YOU

INSTRUMENTAL VERSE

REPEAT CHORUS2

ASK ME HOW I KNOW IT’S TRUE
MANY TIMES I’VE THOUGHT IT THROUGH
