Mixed Messages

You're sending me mixed messages

Mixed messages that I can barely work through

Where the heart lies, which messages

Comin' truly from you.

When I get too close to you

I feel the fear, can almost hear it

Then you call me late at night

Sayin', "Can I be with you?

I wanna be with you".

You're sending me mixed messages

Mixed messages that I can barely work through

Where the heart lies, which messages

Comin' truly from you.

You keep your thoughts to yourself

To keep me guessin' while we're undressin'

Then you're gone for days on end

Hey here we go again

Here we go again.

You're sending me mixed messages

Mixed messages that I can barely work through

Where the heart lies, which messages

Comin' truly from you.

I can't keep bouncing around like this

Cut me loose then pull me in for a kiss

If you know what you want I wish you'd tell me

Clearly.

Wonder why it bothers me

I wonder why, I even wonder why

If I had another lover

Would it get to you

Would I get through?

This puzzle of mixed messages

Mixed messages that I can barely work through

Where the heart lies, which messages

Comin' truly from...

You're sending me mixed messages

Mixed (I) messages (can't) that I (get) can barely (through) work through

Where the heart lies, which messages

Comin' truly from you.
