I Don't Mind

Out by the desolate shore

The waves come in with a roar

The children are playing

Throwing stones in the water

Dogs are chasing the seagulls

Are flickering, bickering, bickering

Horses are out in the pasture

Seeing who's running faster

And inside the house

A young girl is sewing

What a peaceful scene

Like a faded dream

It all looks like a sepia photograph

I don't mind if you live in my mind

I'm happy to keep you there

And that's fine, oh you

You're all that I like

And my imagination's clear, ooh oh

The sun shines bright on the water

I walk with my daughter

And the whole world is

Shimmering, shimmering, shimmering

I hear a church bell ring

With a kind of lilt and swing

Just then the noise of the planes

Is shattering, shattering, shattering

Out by the desolate shore

By the marshy moor

The children were playing

Horses are out in the pasture

Saddled up for the master

Meanwhile the clouds are

Gathering gathering gathering

I don't mind if you live in my mind

I'm happy to keep you there

And that's fine, oh you

You're all that I like

And my imagination's clear, ooh oh

And even though you're just a figment

Of my thoughts I'm still loving every segment

And my imagination got me desperate

And you've already took away my next breath

Which means I'm doomed from the outset

'Cause I'm in love without an outlet

Which means I can't make no progress

Means my ambitions are hopeless

I want to wrap around you like a necklace

But I can't, so you got me moving reckless

To you I'd rather give more and take less

'Cause you make me want to conquer every conquest

I'm trying to tell you that I love you from the longest

I'm trying to tell you that my loving is the strongest

I'm trying to tell you that sweet dreams are made of me

And who are you to disagree?

I don't mind if you live in my mind

I'm happy to keep you there

And that's fine, oh you

You're all that I like

And my imagination's clear

I don't mind if you live in my mind

I'm happy to keep you there

And that's fine, oh you

Happy to, happy to keep you there
