What Were You Thinking Lyrics
What was I thinking
That you were thinking
When you told me
How much you cared about that boy outside
Forget where you should be
Go halfway and meet me
I'll be your constant, your reminder
How to fly from nine to five
Let's make the other bed she'd sleep in
Recount the plastic stars taped to his ceiling
May they all fall down
The list goes on, and on, and on, and on
Of words that you wrote down
The list goes on and on, and on, and on
Of lies you'd take back now
What was I thinking
That you were thinking
When you told me about
How badly she wants him to decide
Between lifeless and sweetly
Or lose her completely
And I can't imagine how it felt
To let that slide and die inside
Let's make the other bed she'd sleep in
Recount the plastic stars taped to his ceiling
May they all fall down
The list goes on, and on, and on, and on
Of words that you wrote down
The list goes on and on, and on, and on
Of lies you'd take back now
What were you thinking?
That you were thinking
When you told me
How much you cared about that boy outside
Forget where you should be
Go halfway and meet me
I'll be your constant, your reminder
How to fly from nine to five
Recount the plastic stars taped to his ceiling
May they all fall down
The list goes on, and on, and on, and on
Of words that you wrote down
The list goes on and on, and on, and on
Of lies you'd take back now
That you were thinking
When you told me about
How badly she wants him to decide
Between lifeless and sweetly
Or lose her completely
And I can't imagine how it felt
To let that slide and die inside
Recount the plastic stars taped to his ceiling
May they all fall down
The list goes on, and on, and on, and on
Of words that you wrote down
The list goes on and on, and on, and on
Of lies you'd take back now

These are actually the lyrics to Restraining Order Blues. someone messed up. on plyrics.com the lyrics are mixed up just like this. lame...
No they're not
*my bad .. those are the wrong lyrics
omfg i hate how I downloaded restraining order blue, when it was like What were you thinking..omfg people are dumb.
I've always felt that this song is kind of a continuation of "In the Same Lifetime," like after the relationship ends and everything. Since the lyrics are kind of similar.
