Gerry Rafferty - Good Intentions Lyrics

I asked my heart
To talk to my mind
They said, don't worry
Oh well, you're doin' fine

I went to the doctor
I said I'm misunderstood
He said, don't worry
Why your intentions are good?

Now life is a hard school
When you're living a lie
Tell me who'll bring you water
When your well runs dry?

Ah, but there's always tomorrow
You'll do the things that you should
You're just a sad eyed dreamer
But your intentions are good

I am a man who keeps his head
Down in the sand
If the spirit doesn't move you
What's the use in making plans?

I've been to the mountain
I've been out in the rain
I'm a long way from home
But I can make it back again

I asked my heart
To talk to my mind
They said don't worry
Oh well, you're doin' fine

I went to the doctor
I said I'm misunderstood
He said, don't worry
(Oh well, you know)
Why your intentions are good

Your intentions are good
(Yeah)
Your intentions are good
(Yeah)
