OJays - Your Body's Here With Me (But Your Mind's on the Other Side of Town) Lyrics

Your body's here with me,
But your mind is on the other side of town
You're messing me around
Girl, your body's here with me, (hmm, hmm, hmm)
But your mind is on the other side of town
You're messing me around

I thought you told me you'd straighten out your life
When we agreed to try it one more time
It would be my job to work and protect you
And you would make our whole life sublime (mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh)

But I keep hearing you cry after midnight
While the whole world is still uh
And I know the reason you had to come home
He gives you plenty thrills
But I'm the one who pays the bills

You know your body's here with me
But your mind is on the other side of town
You're messing me around, messing me around
Girl, your body's here with me,
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
But your mind is on the other side of town (yeah, uh, uh, uh)
You're messing me around, fooling around

You never deny me but it kinda hurts me bad
'Cause you never ever call my name
All I tried to do, I just can't break through
I just can't make it feel the same, no (oh, oh, oh)

I did all I could do to hold you close
Did my very best to love you straight up and down
And girl, it's getting plain to see, your best is not for me
When you get the urge to get down
You go to the other side of town

You know your body's here with me
But your mind is way, way (on the other side of town) 'cross town
You're messing me around, getting on down
(Girl, your body here with me,) your body's
(But your mind is on the other side of town) way, way, way
(Other side, the other side)
(You're messing me around) getting on down, getting on down
(Girl, your body's here with me,) what am I gonna do?
(But your mind is on the other side of town) what am I gonna do?
(You're messing me around) but it's not my name
I can't make it feel the same
Your body
I'm in love with not only your body, babe,
(But your mind, your mind is slipping away) but I need your mind

(Girl, your body's here with me) slipping, baby
(What am I gonna do?) But your mind is on the other side of town
I'm the one who pays the bills
(You're messing me around) he's the one who gives you plenty of thrills
(Girl, your body's here with me)
(Ahh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) your body's here with me,
But your mind is way on the other side of town (other side)
(You're messing me around) you're fooling around
(Other side) fooling around
(Girl, your body) your body's here with me
