Mama, You Been on My Mind Full Lyrics
Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat
An' cov'rin' the crossroads I'm standing at
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
But mama, you been on my mind
I don't mean trouble, please don't put me down or get upset
I am not pleadin', or sayin' I can't forget you
I do not walk the floor bowed down an' bent, but yet
Mama, you been on my mind
Even though my mind are hazy an' my thoughts they might be narrow
Where you been don't bother me or bring me down in sorrow
It don't even matter where you're waking up tomorrow
But Mama, you're just on my mind
I am not askin' you to say words like "yes" or "no"
Please understand me, I'm not askin' you to go
I'm just breathin' to myself, so I can't pretend that I don't know
Mama, you are on my mind
When you wake up in the mornin', baby, look inside your mirror
You know I won't be next to you, you know I won't be near
I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
As someone who has had you on his mind
