Bumblebees Lyrics by Christine Lavin

Good Thing He Can’t Read My Mind

1988

You are not the kind of man
I expected I could fall for
So this is taking me by surprise
You are so shy, so softspoken
For a man so very young
You are so very wise
But you are probably just as scared as I am
Neither one is admitting to very much
But there is no denying the look
You can see in my eyes
Or how it feels when we touch
And I am not the kind of girl
You expected you could fall for
You don't have to say it, I know it's true
Your history is no secret
We've seen them come and go
And I never thought any of them were really right for you
But I am just as hesistant as you are
I'm not calling long distance tonight
No I will lie here in my bed
And I will listen to the radio
And whisper through the darkness "sleep tight"
Somewhere around 3 AM
My telephone rings
I pick it up, it's you
You say you're having trouble sleeping
Thoughts of me are keeping you up
Well, lately I've had trouble sleeping too
I am just as wide awake as you are
Let's talk into the sun touches the sky
I am not what you expected
You are not what I expected
But who expected bumblebees could fly
You are not what I expected
I am not what you expected
But who expected bumblebees could fly
Oh, go ahead and fly
