Oh, you're always in the back of my mind
Ooooh
Nothing ever changes
Oh, I wish to God it did
Just another drink and you'll be gone
Ooooh
2 a.m. raining again
I saw you making faces in the river
Only me, down by the quay
Just a sad reflection that I give you
Oh, I thought time would burn it
Burn it down to the ground
Just a little breeze and you'll be strong
Ooooh
Driving home, all on my own
Just a passenger in all that we lost
Satisfy, oh, Lord, don't deny
I see your face in the everything that's near'cause
Oh, you were always in the back of my mind
Oh, you were always in the back of my mind
(Instrumental Interlude)
Oh, I have all the memories
The winter of 82
When down upon
The ice you saw me melt
Washed up on the rocks again
Oh, don't you know
That it's so damn hot
And the things you do
Oh, I won't ever learn
Oh, I won't ever learn
Oh, you were always in the back of my mind
2 a.m. raining again
I saw you making faces in the river
Only me, down by the quay
Just a sad reflection that I give you
Oh, I thought time would burn it
Burn it down to the ground
Just a little breeze and you'll be strong
Oh, you were always in the back of my mind
Oh, you were always in the back of my mind
(Instrumental Interlude)
Driving home, all on my own
Just a passenger in all that we lost
Satisfy, oh, Lord, don't deny
I see your face in the everything that's near'cause
Oh, you were always in the back of my mind
Oh, you were always in the back of my mind
Oh, you were always in the back of my mind
Oh, you were always in the back of my mind
In the back of my mind
In the back of my mind
