lyrics

Ever in need of a distraction
Something that could busy my mind
Temporarily
I know it's just a matter of time

But what can I do
I'm focused on you
No matter how hard I try

Oh, when I'm sitting at home
I don't feel I have a hold on the reins
Oh, I just wait by the phone
If ever it should ring
And it's you

Ever in need of a distraction
Just from one particular thing
Metaphorically
Well, something like a pebble in your shoe

But what can I do
The pebble is you
I think of you all the time

Oh, when I hear myself talk
I can't stop from bringing you up
Maybe it's the same for you
But no it's not exactly the same

Maybe there's a part of me
Holding up the start of concentration on other things
Could be that the heart of the problem
Is a latent expectation that things will change
When everything stays the same
There's nowhere to lay the blame

Ever in need of a distraction, oh!
Ever in need of a distraction, oh!

(For just a minute of your time,
Could you be busying your mind?)
