[Verse 1: Etta James]
There is something on your mind
By the way you look at me
There is something on your mind, baby
By the way you look at me
And what you're thinking brings happiness
Oh, and it brings misery
Please, please, don't try to tell me
I think I, I understand
No, no, don't try to tell me, baby
'Cause I think I, I understand
You want me to try and forget you
Well, I'll do
Baby, I'll do the best I can
[Interlude: B.B. King]
You know it hurts you when you're in love with someone and you know that someone don't love you. It carries a heavy burden on your heart to know that the someone that you're in love with is in love with your best friend. And I'll tell you, when someone else is rocking your, rocking your cradle, you know, better than you can rock your cradle yourself, then there's only one thing for you to do
You just pack your clothes, turn around, and slowly walk out of the door
Look over your left shoulder as you go out, then you hang your head and you say:
[Verse 2: B.B. King]
Oh, please don't try to tell me
Uh-huh, I think, I understand
No, no, no, no
Please don't try to tell me
Because you think, you think I understand
Oh, you want me to try
To try to forget you, baby
And I'll tell you, I'll do the best I can
There is something on your mind
By the way you look at me
There is something on your mind, baby
By the way you look at me
And what you're thinking brings happiness
Oh, and it brings misery
Please, please, don't try to tell me
I think I, I understand
No, no, don't try to tell me, baby
'Cause I think I, I understand
You want me to try and forget you
Well, I'll do
Baby, I'll do the best I can
