Lyrics
Sometimes it occurs to me
Don?t be misled to believe
That all your fears can be perceived
Who you know yourself to be
Is not the same as what they see
And then you have reality
So many times I worry
If my words were said with too much hurry
Should I have turned the censor on?
What if I said too much?
Did I think to say enough?
Surely I am not the only one who questions what was said
Then it occurs to me
Don?t be misled to believe
That all your fears can be perceived
Who you know yourself to be
Is not the same as what they see
And then you have reality
Turning round and round in bed
I start counting in my head
How many times I?ve heard that rhyme before
I wish that was the least of it
I?m still tossing round in fits
What if they offer that I shouldn?t quit my day job?
Then it occurs to me
Don?t be misled to believe
That all your fears can be perceived
Who you know yourself to be
Is not the same as what they see
And then you have reality
Some say Freud was just a fraud
But not this time; he was not wrong
We all have three sides to who we are
The lesson to be learned is
Don?t ever be concerned with
Perceptions that you?ll never know
Then it occurs to me
Don?t be misled to believe
That all your fears can be perceived
Who you know yourself to be
Is not the same as what they see
And then you have reality
