|
Perhaps it's the colour of the sun cut fly |
|
Uncovering the crossroads |
|
I'm standing at |
|
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that |
|
But mama you've been on my mind. |
|
I don't mean no trouble, please don't put me down or get upset |
|
I'm not pleading insane, |
|
I can't forget |
|
I do not walk the floor, bow down and pampered yet |
|
But mama you've been on my mind. |
|
Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts, they might be narrow |
|
Where you've been don't bother me, or bring me down in sorrow |
|
Don't even matter to me where you're wakin' up tomorrow |
|
But mama you're just on my mind. |
|
I am not askin' you to say the words like yes or no |
|
Please understand that |
|
I've got no place for you to go |
|
I'm just breathin' to myself pretendin' not that |
|
I don't know |
|
Mama you've been on my mind. |
|
When you wake up in the morning baby look inside your mirror |
|
I know I won't be next to you, you know |
|
I won't be near |
|
I'd just like to know if you can see yourself as clear |
|
As someone who has had you on his mind... |
