about

A-Side single from the album Solitaire for Two

lyrics

The heart goes to the head
with a mop and a pail of water
to clean up what was left behind
in the corners of an empty mind.

What do you see when your head's in the sand?
How do you feel if you don't understand?

"I want a world where things make sense,"
the head says to the heart,
"but people seem to take offense
when I'm trying to be smart."

The head goes to the heart
with an ax and a suit of armor,
in hopes that it will gain control
by destruction of a lonely soul.

Intellect wins by defining the game,
but changing the rules is to lose, all the same.

"Who cares if we are right or wrong?"
the heart says to the mind,
"What matters is we get along,
so don't be smart, be kind."

The head beats the heart
every time they play a game of checkers.
The heart complains it isn't fair,
so both resort to solitaire.
