Just Not True

(carly simon)



You stick to me when i wish you gone

You hammer on my thoughts through dreams

Your plot is thick with saucy schemes

And ways to reach my balconies

But i say i'm not turned on by the way you look

I say i'm not turned on by the way you act

I'm not turned on when you tell me that you need me

But sometimes, just sometimes

You can see the softness in my eyes

And you know, it's just not true



You're in my blood, a holy ghost

I scream, but it's a hollow plea

The thoughts i swallow leave me thirsty

You do a very fine imitation of me

And i say i'm not turned on by the way you laugh

I'm not turned on by the way you smile

I'm not turned on when you tell me that you love me

But sometimes, just sometimes

You can see the softness in my eyes

And you know, it's just not true



And i say i'm not turned on by the way you dance

I'm not turned on my the way you laugh

I'm not turned on when you need me

But sometimes, just sometimes

You can see the softness in my eyes

And you know, it's just not true.
