In A Minor Way

(Alexander)

Don't know what it is you want from me, babe
Don't know what song it is I'm supposed to play
But even though I'm singing out of key, babe
I mean every single word I say
In a minor way, in a minor way

I know those little words I haven't spoken
Have driven better men than I insane
I see no need to fix what isn't broken
The two of us have such a winning game
In a minor way, in a minor way

In a minor way
You're nearly always on my mind
I love you almost all the time
I absolutely for the most part can say
In a minor way

Better would be hard to find

So tell me that you'll always stay
In a minor way

Subtract reality from expectation
Subtract a little more from what is left
Add a bit of me to your equation
A winning formula for happiness
In a minor way, in a minor way

In a minor way
You're nearly always on my mind
I love you almost all the time
I absolutely for the most part can say
In a minor way
It isn't what you had in mind
But telling me that you'll always stay
In a minor way
