(Alexander)      Don't know what it is you want from me, babe   Don't know what song it is I'm supposed to play   But even though I'm singing out of key, babe   I mean every single word I say   In a minor way, in a minor way      I know those little words I haven't spoken   Have driven better men than I insane   I see no need to fix what isn't broken   The two of us have such a winning game   In a minor way, in a minor way      In a minor way   You're nearly always on my mind   I love you almost all the time   I absolutely for the most part can say   In a minor way   Better would be hard to find   So tell me that you'll always stay   In a minor way      Subtract reality from expectation   Subtract a little more from what is left   Add a bit of me to your equation   A winning formula for happiness   In a minor way, in a minor way      In a minor way   You're nearly always on my mind   I love you almost all the time   I absolutely for the most part can say   In a minor way   It isn't what you had in mind   But telling me that you'll always stay   In a minor way
