I can feel it floating away
inch by inch, day by day
Love boat set itself free

Castaway, slipping out to sea

I can feel it coming adrift

Even a blind man could see the rift
From an ocean liner
To a Chinese junk

There ain't been a ship
that can't be sunk


I used to dream it could last forever
But pipedreams never come true
I'd be foolin' myself if I never

thought something like this
couldn't happen to you


I said baby
You've got a man on your mind
You've got a weight on your shoulders

How you ever gonna find
the words to say goodbye?


You don't know
just what you got
till it's gone

I guess you heard that a lot
but it's true
It's not just a game

You can't change your life
by changing your name


It's not something you can hide away
Sooner or later it starts to show
It's written on your face

you've been betrayed
Do you really believe
that I don't know?


I said baby
You've got a man on your mind

You've got a weight on your shoulders
How you ever gonna find
the words to say (goodbye)?


He's already fallen
so it's no use to fight

And if he starts callin'
let him know you're with me
for the rest of the night


(instrumental)


Ooh I said baby
You've got a man on your mind
(Got a man on your mind)

You've got a weight on your shoulders
How you ever gonna find
the words to say goodbye?


Baby (Please listen to me baby)
You've got a man on your mind

(Gotta get that man off your mind)
You've got a weight on your shoulders
How you ever gonna find

the words to say goodbye?

Baby (ooh baby baby baby)

You've got a man on your ming
(You got that man on your mind)
You've got a weight on your shoulders

How you ever gonna find
the words to say goodbye?
