You Have Put Loving Here in My Mind

I thought we'd go for an unserious thing
just have a laugh and maybe squeeze what we could out of a temporary fling
but now you've gone and put loving in my mind

I thought we'd make a song and lay down a track
I didn't think that we were making up a tune I would be wanting to play back
but now you've gone and put loving in my mind

I didn't think it was lasting, that's what we both understood
we both agreed to keep the waters not too deep
it's unexpectedly frightening to feel that thunder and lightning

I thought I'd treat it like an afternooon stroll
I had the situation firmly in my hands and safely under my control
but now you've gone and put loving in my mind
you have put loving here in my mind
somehow you've put loving here in my mind

I didn't think love could get to me
I didn't think I could fall

I didn't think it was lasting, that's what we both understood
we both agreed to keep the waters not too deep
it's unexpectedly frightening to feel the thunder and lightening

I had an image of two ships in the night
they pass and then continue sailing from each other till the sails are out of sight
but now you've gone and put loving in my mind
you have put loving here in my mind

somehow you've put loving here in my mind...
