Speak My Mind

With a foot out the door
And one in my way
You're leaving me home
For another work day
I'd follow you out
But you keep me in so
I'm watching you leave
With my nose on the window
How could you sleep all day
Just to stay up at night and keep you awake
If I could speak my mind
I'd go out on a limb and say with a sigh
I'm the only
Who sees you when you think you're by yourself
If I'm too much to carry
Just put me down gently
If I'm too much to carry
Just put me down gently
I've been your pillow
For an after work nap
But how many shrinks
Curled up in your lap
Friends come and go
But I'm still here
Have you forgotten me?
My curiosity's aiming to go
If I'm too much to carry
Just put me down gently
If I'm too much to carry
Just put me down gently
Don't worry at all for me
I've always landed on my feet
So if you're gone
At least leave the TV on
Re-run
How could you sleep all day
Just to stay up at night and keep you awake
If I could speak my mind
I'd go out on a limb and say with a sigh
I'm the only
Who sees you when you think you're by yourself
If I'm too much to carry
Just put me down gently
If I'm too much to carry
Just put me down gently
Just put me down gently
Just put me down gently
Just put me down gently
