Lyrics
Jazzy On My Mind
On a dark night
In the devil?s part of town
In a small club
She wore an evening gown
With hair like curls of smoke
And a smile that did invoke
Temptation
To lay my troubles down
She wore diamonds
Gifts from many men
Who came to see her
Every now and then
And she kept them on a chain
And then watched them go insane
So certain
They?d soon be back again
Jazzy, you?ve been on my mind
Jazzy, you?ve been on my mind
For all of yesterday
Which I threw away
Searching for promises
Of things I?ll never find
Am I desperate
Like every other fool?
Who?s entangled
By the spider in her spool?
And I feel her icy breath
And her touch so cold like death
And her sly smile
So bright like any jewel
Jazzy, you?ve been on my mind
Jazzy, you?ve been on my mind
For all of yesterday
Which I threw away
Searching for promises
Of things I?ll never find
Jazzy, you?ve been on my mind
Jazzy, you?ve been on my mind
For all of yesterday
I was blown away
Searching for all your words
That left me feeling blind
