That's Important To Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Before you turn out the lights
And slip into the bed
Before you turn me on
Slip into my head
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
Tell me what's your sanity
That's important to me
That's important to me
I can see it in your soul
Your first or your second guess
You don't have to talk sweet
Honey, you don't have to confess
I don't want you to cry
I don't want you to bleed
I just wanna know your sanity
That's important to me
Oh, it's not important to know
Who you're seeing, where you go
How you spend your hard-earned money
I ain't into addiction, I don't want total control
Just tell me what you think you need
Tell me what you think you need
Now you can handle the body
You can possess the soul
But when it comes to the mind
Some places I'll never go
But if we keep it connected
I know if we try, we'll keep it alive
That's important to me
That's important to me
So talk to me baby
It's important to me
Yeah, yeah, talk to me baby
Talk, talk to me baby
It's important to me
