Tom Wilson - Mama, You Been On My Mind lyrics

Perhaps it is the color of the sun cut flat And covering the crossroads I'm standing at Or maybe it's the weather or something like that But mama , you been on my mind I mean no trouble, please don't put me down, don't get upset I am not pleading or saying I can't forget you I do not pace the floor bowed down and bent, but yet Mama, you been on my mind Even though my eyes are hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow Where you been don't bother me or bring me down in sorrow I don't even mind with who you're waking up tomorrow But mama, you've been on my mind I am not askin' you to say words like "yes" or "no," Please understand me, I have no place I'm calling you to go I'm just whispering to myself so I can pretend that I don't know Mama, you been on my mind When you wake up in the morning, 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
