Preyin' On My Mind
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Just like a wind
Singing its song of windchime
I'm a lonely man passing through your town
Thinking of you
Lord you used to be mine
I never wake up
Only wake up down
And it's preyin' on my mind
That there's nothing left in my hands but time
Time don't really care if I carry on
Love left me behind
Just like summer leaves
The grapes on the vine
Wake up in the morning
Find you're gone
Find you're gone
Find you're gone
Trying to go home
But the road never seemed to pass your way
In Spite of myself
I've been getting by
I could have called
You're just a dime away
There's a phone up ahead
But I know I'll just pass on by
And it's preyin' on my mind
That there's nothin' left in my hands but time
Time don't really care if I carry on
Love left me behind
Just like summer leaves and grapes on the vine
Wake up in the mornin'
Find you're gone
Find you're gone
Find you're gone
Find you're gone
