You've never cheated, you've never lied you've never had feeling's that you've had to hide For she's got you thinking of something so different tonight It's too late to worry what's right or what's wrong and you're a little too crazy to leave it alone When you're looking at something that's too good to push it aside Boy, she's got your head in the clouds and your heart in a bind How come you're feeling so proud when your love's on the line? You still think your first love's the best in your life when you know you should hurry But you can't say goodbye And you know you can't go back and feel like you're where you belong Now the sweet taste of freedom is hard to control when the touch of a woman's so tender to hold She won't even let you remember how long you've been gone Boy, you've got your head in the clouds and your heart in a bind So how come you're feeling so proud when your love's on the line? Yeah you've got your head in the clouds and your heart in a bind So how come you're feeling so proud when your love's on the line?
