Rod Stewart - Mama You Been On My Mind lyrics
(Bob Dylan)
Perhaps it抯 the color of the sun cut flat
and coverin' the crossroads I抦 standing at
or maybe it抯 the weather or something like that
but mama you been on my mind
I do not mean you trouble, don抰 put me down, don抰 get upset
I am not pleadin?or sayin?I can抰 forget you
I do not pace the floor, bowed down and bent, but yet
mama you been on my mind
Even tho?my eyes are hazy
and my thoughts they might be narrow
where you been don抰 bother me, or bring me down with sorrow
I don抰 even mind where you be wakin?up tomorrow
but mama you been on my mind
I抦 not asking you to say words like yes or no
Please understand me, I抳e no place I抦 calling you to go
I抦 just whisperin?to myself so I can pretend that I don抰 know
Mama you been on my mind
When you wake up in the mornin?baby, look inside your mirror
you know I won抰 be next to you, you know I won抰 be near
I抎 just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
as someone who has had you on his mind
As someone who has had you on his mind
Mama you been on my mind
