Lyrics

Contented In My Mind

I’d be happy just to lay my eyes
On you one more time
I’m not gonna cry or make a scene
This time, I only want to see your smile
I don’t want to wind up all alone
Just me, waiting for the end
I would like to find myself at home
And be contented in my mind

It always seems to come as a surprise
To me, you’d think I would’ve learned by now
Many a night I lie awake and stare
Up at the ceiling; I find no comfort there
I don’t want to wind up all alone
Just me, waiting for the end
I would like to find myself at home
And be contented in my mind

The sands of time are running through my hands
My mind can hardly take it in
Love and all the joy that it can bring
Fade away like every other thing
I don’t want to wind up all alone
Just me, waiting for the end
I would like to find myself at home
And be contented in my mind
