Doc Watson - That Was The Last Thing On My Mind lyrics

It's a lesson too late for the learnin'

Made of sand, made of sand

In a wink of an eye my soul is burnin'

In your hand, in your hand

(chorus)

Are you goin' away with no words off farewell

Can there be another trace left behind

I could have loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind

You know, that was the last thing on my mind

(break)

You got reasond a-plenty for goin'

This I know, this I know

For the weeds have been steadily growin'

Please dont' go, please don't go

(chorus)

(break)

As I lie in my bed in the morning

Without you, without you

Each song in my breast dies a-bornin'

Without you, without you

(chorus)

Yes, that was the last thing on my mind
