[Verse 1]
Sometimes I like to be alone
And look out through my window at the sky
Sometimes I like to be alone
And look at life as it goes passing by
[Chorus]
But it's hard to concentrate
When you're around, I just relate
To your reaction
And I want to be loving you
Distraction, mm-hm-hm-hm
A distraction
[Verse 2]
Sometimes a wave of thought runs through my mind
But if it ever meets
A thought of you, my wave of thought
Would never have a chance to be complete
[Chorus]
Oh, but it's hard to concentrate
When you're around, I just relate
To your reaction
And I want to be loving you
A distraction
[Bridge]
You can look at me
In a way that is not fair
Lots of things that I should do
They just vanish in thin air
They just vanish in thin air
[Verse 3]
I like to imagine I can I do things
That I've never done before
I like to imagine myself opening and closing
Lots of doors
[Chorus]
Oh, but it's hard to concentrate
When you're around, I just relate
To your reaction
And I want to be loving you
Distraction, mm-hm-hm-hm-hm
[Outro]
Distraction, mm-hm-hm-hm-hm
Distraction, uh-uh-ho-ho-ho
Distraction, mm-hm-hm-hm-hm
