What goes on in your heart,
What goes on in your mind.
You are tearing me a part
When you treat me so unkind,
What goes on in your mind.

The other day I saw you as I walked along the road,
But when I saw him with you I could feel my future fold,
It's so easy for a girl like you to lie,
Tell me why.

What goes on in your heart,
What goes on in your mind.
You are tearing me a part
When you treat me so unkind,
What goes on in your mind.

I met you in the morning waiting for the tides of time,
But now the tide is turning I can see that I was blind,
It's so easy for a girl like you to lie,
Tell me why.

What goes on in your heart,
I used to think of no one else
But you were just the same,
You didn't even think of me
As someone with a name,
Did you mean to break my heart
And watch me die,
Tell me why.

What goes on in your heart,
What goes on in your mind.
You are tearing me a part
When you treat me so unkind,
What goes on in your mind.
In your mind, in your mind.
