In times in my head Was together about you I was an expert a silence I enjoyed the blonds in their red jeeps Stopping you on the street Knowing none could compare with me In my airy skirts and cool retreats In times when my head was together about you I was an expert at silence You could have told the truth all the time I was that at ease inside You never made me cry And then one night I lied I got down with a boy in the backwoods I didn't tell you and you didn't see And that's when jealousy In times when my head was together about you I was an expert at silence Now every look you get Seems like another threat I pick your pockets almost hoping to find Something to hurt about to prove you unkind Oh but I still love you baby though now I jsut can't sit still And though that boy meant nothing to me I believe I've lost that simple thrill of the In times when my head was together about you I was an expert at silence
