Baby, You've Been On My Mind

It could be the color of the Sun cut flat
And covering the crossroads I'm standing at
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
Baby, you've been on my mind

I don't mean trouble please don't put me down, don't get upset
I'm not pleading
I'm not saying when I can't forget you
I do not walk the floor, bowed down to beg and yet
Baby, you've been on my mind

I am not asking you to say words like yes or no
Please understand me, I've got no place for you to go
I'm just breathing to myself, pretending not that I don't know
Baby, you've been on my mind

Even though my mind's hazy and my thoughts, they may be narrow
Where you been don't bother me or bring me down in sorrow
It don't even matter who you're waking with tomorrow
Baby, you've been on my mind

When you wake up in the mornin', baby, look inside your mirror
Girl I won't be next to you, come you know I won't be near you
I'd be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
As someone who has had you on his mind
As someone who has had you on his mind
