The Dubliners - Last Thing on My Mind lyrics

It's a lesson too late for the learnin' Made of sand, made of sand In the wink of an eye my soul is turnin' In your hand, in your hand Are you goin' away with no word of farewell? Will there be not a trace left behind I could have loved you better Didn't mean to be unkind That was the last thing on my mind You've got reasons a-plenty for goin' This I know, this I know For the weeds have been steadily growin' Please don't go, please don't go Are you goin' away with no word of farewell? Will there be not a trace left behind I could have loved you better Didn't mean to be unkind That was the last thing on my mind As I lie in my bed in the mornin' Without you, without you Every song in my breast dies a-bornin' Without you, without you Are you goin' away with no word of farewell? Will there be not a trace left behind I should have loved you better Didn't mean to be unkind That was the last thing on my mind
