Lyrics
I was over my head, hold your horses
Head over heels in love
Foaming at the mouth, down for the count
Heaven on earth, uh-huh
She wrapped me around her little finger
I was happy as a clam
When she said "jump" I'd ask how high
I was putty in her hands
Do you know what I mean?
Are we on the same page
Do you know what I mean?
Have you ever been made?
She said I was beating around the bush
I was close but no cigar
Maybe I was barking up the wrong tree
Maybe I'd gone too far
So she burst my bubble, packed up her bagsNo sense beating a dead horse
It was a hard pill to swallow, I was hung out to dry
I guess our love had run its course
Do you know what I mean?
Are we on the same page
Do you know what I mean?
She rained on my parade
BRIDGE -> INSTRUMENTAL
Like a fish out of water, I'm out of place
She threw everything at me but the kitchen sink
Now I'm cryin' over spilled milk
I can't hear myself think
We thought it would work, a piece of cakeBut we couldn't add up to a sum
She left cuz she couldn't see
Where I was coming from
Do you know what I mean?
Are we on the same page
Do you know what I mean?
Our lives were just a charade
Do you know what I mean?
Are we on the same page
Do you know what I mean?
She rained on my parade
