Please excuse me, I'm not thinking clear   It must just be stress   But I likely shouldn't be here   I'm such a mess      I never really ever know what to say   When I let my emotions get in the way   And I'm just trying to get us on the same page      I always get it better right afterwards   When all the wrong impressions are said and heard   How come I can never get the right words?   I need to convey, wish I could explain      The things that I have to work out   I don't feel right   What has come over me, I'm about   To lose my mind      I never really ever know what to say   When I let my emotions get in the way   And I'm just trying to get us on the same page      I always get it better right afterwards   When all the wrong impressions are said and heard   How come I can never get the right words?   I need to convey, wish I could explain      Can I let the trees do the talking?   Can I let the ground do the walking?   Can I let the sky fill what's missing in?   Can I let my mouth do the listening? Do listening      I never really ever know what to say   When I let my emotions get in the way   And I'm just trying to get us on the same page      I always get it better right afterwards   When all the wrong impressions are said and heard   How come I can never get the right words?   I need to convey, wish I could explain   What I need to say
