Nina Simone
Can’t Get Out of This Mood
[Verse 1]
All day long before my eyes come little visions of you
They shouldn't, they mustn't, but they do
Can't get out of this mood
Can't get over this feeling
Can't get out of this mood
Last night your lips were appealing
The thrill should have been all gone by today, in the usual way
But it's only your arms I'm out of
Can't get out of this dream
What a fool to dream of you
Twasn't part of my scheme
To sigh and tell you that I love you
But now I'm saying it, I'm playing it dumb
Can't get out of this mood
Heartbreak here I come
[Verse 2]
I can't get over this feeling
Last night your lips were appealing
The thrill should have been all gone by today, in the usual way
But it's only your arms that I'm out of
What a fool to dream of you
To sigh and tell you that I love you
But now I'm playing it, now I'm playing it dumb
I can't get out of this mood
Heartbreak, heartbreak here I come
