I wonder if you've had the time it takes to think it over And sort out all the feel-ings in your mind Some-times I think you've found some-one to do your thinking for you 'Cause lately you've been show-in' all the signs [Chorus] Should I come home or should I go cra-zy I'm begging you please make up your mind If you love me, then think it all o-ver Make up your mind, or I'll lose mine Last night when I came by I rang the bell and no one answered But I heard voices whisper through the door Now I'm not sure if any-one was home to do the talk-ing 'Cause lately I hear voices more and more [Chorus]
