George Jones & Dr. Hook
(I still hold her body but I think I lost her mind.)
She comes to me so excited and I keep waiting for
The feeling to come flowing out once more
But even with her in my arms I feel so left behind
'Cause I still hold her body but I think I lost her mind..
I don't know where her fault goes while the rest of hers with me
She's just going through the motions, wait for me
You know she has her pride and Lord knows I have mine
'Cause I still hold her body but I think I lost her mind.
And I think I've lost her will to let her know that I lnow
'Cause she thinks she found a way that it won't show
But she does me this favor and loves me one more time
Yes, I still hold her body but I think I lost her mind
Yes, I still hold her body but I know I lost her mind
I lost her mind...
