F                            Bb
Well don't ask me about love
             F
I'm just your mind
     Am           Bb
I see sometimes oh oh
           C
But now I'm blind
                  F     Bb
Don't ask me about love
                 Am   Dm
Cuz I'm the wrong guy
            Bb                C
I don't know how love happens
                F
And I don't know why


         Bb             F
I analyze and that's not bad (oh)
                Am            Bb          C
But I never find love I always find love's shadow
     F  Bb        Am  Dm
I'm okay for fantasy,
           Bb          C                    F
But for the Truth about love ask him and not me


F                     Bb
For this is your mind
               F    Bb
And I'm not the one
                C      F
You must ask the heart


G                 C
This is your mind
          G
And I only borrow
            Bm    C      D
I don't feel happy in the morning
                G        C
And I don't feel sorrow
                   Bm   Em
And love is a mystery
          C               D
I'm not at ease right now
               G
Ask him and not me


G                     C
Cuz this is your mind
               G     C
And I'm not the one
                D       G
You must ask the heart

Lyrics

Well don't ask me about love
I'm just your mind
I see sometimes oh oh
But now I'm blind
Don't ask me about love
'Cause I'm the wrong guy
I don't know how love happens
And I don't know why

I analyze and that's not bad (oh)
But I never find love I always find love's shadow
I'm okay for fantasy,
But for the truth about love ask him and not me

For this is your mind
And I'm not the one
You must ask the heart

This is your mind
And I only borrow
I don't feel happy in the morning
And I don't feel sorrow
And love is a mystery
I'm not at ease right now
Ask him and not me

'Cause this is your mind
And I'm not the one
You must ask the heart

Mercury Lounge

Lyrics

[One more last, this is the end of the show
This is the way we say good night]

Don't ask me about love
I'm just your mind
I can see sometimes that's so
But now I'm blind

Don't ask me about love
'Cause I'm just the wrong guy
I don't know how love happens
And I don't know why

I analyze and that's not bad (oh)
But I never find love I only find love's shadow
I'm okay for fantasy,
But for the truth about love ask him and not me

This is your mind
And I'm not the one
You must ask the heart

This is your mind
But I only borrow
I don't feel happy in the morning
And I don't feel sorrow
And love is a mystery
I'm not at ease right now
Ask him, not me

For this is your mind
And I'm not the one
You must ask the heart

[This is your mind talking
And I've been fooling you for fifteen or twenty years
You come to me for advice about romance
And I'm flattered
So I talk to you
That's why your life is such a mess
But I can't in good conscience steer you wrong anymore
So I'm going to refer you to the authority
And I don't like him any more than you do
He gives these one word answers
And he's a pain in the ass
I don't like him
But]

This is your mind
And I only borrow
It's not me who feels happy in the morning
And I don't feel sorrow
As love is a mystery
I'm just not at ease right now
Talking about it
Ask him, not me

For this is your mind
And I'm not the one
You must ask the heart

[And that's all for tonight, bye]
