Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
The room was filled with talk For anyone listening I found a spot by the door With no one around Let my mind go Out of tune Out of tune I kept a smile on my face For anyone looking Tried to turn away questions Before he asked Let my mind go Out of tune Out of tune I was engrossed in the film Without really watching Said, "who's the guy with the gun?" As if I was involved Let my mind go Out of tune Out of tune
