You keep your distance but your eyes stay locked
I’m just leaning back, looking at the clock
You want to say it but you’re losing the nerve
I’m just watching you throw another curve
Got my shades on so you can’t see the look
I’ve already read every page in your book
You move a little closer then you stop right there
I can feel the tension hanging in the air
Am I on your mind?
Is that why you’re acting so shy?
Am I on your mind?
You don’t even have to try to lie
I know the rhythm and I know the beat
And I can feel the vibe every time we meet
My girls told me you were asking around
Trying to find out my reputation in this town
I just laughed and kept walking my way
Ain't got no extra words that I need to say
You think you’re being smooth, you think you’re real sly
But I’m the type of girl that you can’t just buy
So if you’re ready, then make the right move
Stop holding back and just catch the groove
Am I on your mind?
Is that why you’re acting so shy?
Am I on your mind?
You don’t even have to try to lie
I know the rhythm and I know the beat
And I can feel the vibe every time we meet
No need to rush it, just keep it steady and light
We got the whole evening to get this right
If you’re for real, then let the truth be known
If not, then just leave the whole thing alone
Am I on your mind?
Is that why you’re acting so shy?
Am I on your mind?
You don’t even have to try to lie
I know the rhythm and I know the beat
And I can feel the vibe every time we meet
Yeah.
On your mind.
I know I am.
Keep it moving.
