Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A beautiful mind or a beautiful body
I know which one I'm gonna end up on
You say you will, but you never promised thoughts
[Verse 2]
A smile and a hand mix like water with sand
As far as you're concerned
A road and a sign, I know which one catches my eyes
[Verse 3]
And I thought I heard it for a while
Then it all came to me
Sometimes I just don't know what I believe in
[Verse 4]
Don't you wanna know when I suffer?
It doesn't know
A smile and a hand mix like water with sand, don't you know?
[Verse 5]
I was thinking about moving back home
I don't really need to live here, no, no, no, no
[Verse 6]
I didn't, I could, I'm sure I would if I knew that
I didn't, I could, I'm sure I would if I knew that
[Verse 7]
A smile and a hand mix like water with sand
As far as you're concerned
A beautiful mind or a beautiful body
I know which one I'm, I'm gonna end up on
End up on
