Lyrics
Last Thing 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.
It's a lesson too late for the learning,
Made of sand, made of sand.
In the wink of an eye my soul is turning
In your hand, in your hand.
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
Will there be not a trace left behind?
I could have loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind
You know, that was the last thing on my mind.
You've got reasons aplenty for going.
This I know, this I know.
For the weeds have been steadily growing.
Please don't go, please don't go.
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
Will there be not a trace left behind?
I could have loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind
You know, that was the last thing on my mind.
As I lay here in bed in the morning
Without you, without you.
Every song in my breast dies a borning
Without you, without you.
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
Will there be not a trace left behind?
I could have loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind
You know, that was the last thing on my mind.
