I do all this, not knowing
and I give myself away
and she says w/ soft skin
that I can't tear away
and we are still peaking at life when we're away
and all this, im seeking is the last thing that I say

Oh, time, we watch it tick
but noone seems to notice
Oh, time, I'm twisting

Gonna see the first thing on my mind
Oh, on my mind
see the first thing on my mind
woohoo, on my mind

Have they reached the point when
they turn to someone else?
Can you find the ocean?
Instead we put all our faith in and
sung out the sirens they say

Oh time, we watch it tick
No one seems to notice
And oh time, I'm twisting
Gonna see the first thing on my mind
ohh She's on my mind
See the first thing on my mind
oohhh yea....

Little girl, where have you been?
Daddy's wallet and his bottle of gin
Little girl, you owe one more
She's just misunderstood for
A poor little rich girl
ahhh First thing on my mind
First thing on my mind
ohhh nahh

Do you run into things?
Do you duck behind your back?
Do you slit your wrist with the knife we used to
cut you some slack
And we say, ohh time
We watch and say, no one seems to notice

Oh, time, I'm twisting
Going to see the first thing on my mind
See the first thing on my mind
She's on my mind
see the first thing on my mind
She's on my mind
ah no no
She's on my mind
Ohh ahhh....
