Now I'm lying here with Linda on my mind And next to me my soon to be the one I left behind And Lord, it's k**ing me to see her crying She knows I'm lying here beside her with Linda on my mind Yes, I know that I once loved her and I place no one above her And I never thought I'd ever set her free But it just wasn't in my plans the way Linda squeezed my hand
The first time I held her close as she danced with me She said, "I've loved you for a long time But you're married to a friend of mine" And I try hard to never let it show But my love for you is stronger I can't hide it any longer And so I thought I'd better let you know That I'm lying here with Linda on my mind
