lyrics

He tried to say how he felt
But to the child he was unusual
He said my mind keeps shifting
It's never black or white
It keeps shifting all the time.
His face would tighten with a frown
They called him kind but he kept looking down
He said my mind keeps shifting
It's never black or white
It's never day or night

I've been a love sick dope
Walking on a tight rope
Loosing your balance can kill you
Trying to get stable you learn a funny fable
You've got to have a full deck of cards
Every time I smile I'm hiding something vile
And it's the same thing vice versa
I'm trying to get balance
Up against the challenge of extremes

Were you in love with me, Girl
and whatever I am?
I took the bus home form your place
I looked at the moon
It had a painted face
See it's face was painted
Balanced black and white
You're in love with Jesus and the Devil
Yeah, you're in love with Jesus and the Devil
cause you're in love with me.
