Thanks to patrick for a correction!

You can tell me a thousand times, or more, / it's all in the past, / but words just won't convince me, / I'm smarter than that! / And any fool can see / that even though you're here with me, / your mind, your mind, your mind / is some place else. / Your mind, your mind, your mind / is some place else. /

I know the place; / I was there once / but I don't think / I'll ever see it again. / Your mind, your mind, your mind / is some place else. / Your mind, your mind, your mind / is some place else. /

Since the first time I heard her name I knew / we'd never be the same, / and I know to who you say it, now / it's started again. / And any fool can see / that you have given up on me; / your mind, your mind, your mind's / on someone else. / Your mind, your mind, your mind's / on someone else. /

I know the girl / who's in my place, / and I know / I can never face her again. / Your mind, your mind, your mind's / on someone else. / Your mind, your mind, your mind's / on someone else. / (Your mind, your mind's / on someone else. / Your mind, your mind's / on someone else.)
