You've Been on My Mind

And if you see me again,

You won't see me smiling

And if I see you again,

I won't see you sad

And you still make me blue

I'm not brave enough for you

And you still make me cry

But I can't say goodbye

If you look for me,

You'll find me all alone

If I look for you,

I'll find nothing at all

In my days of despair,

You'll be far gone

In your days of despair,

I'll be far too close

One day, I'll grow up and leave you

One day, I'll forget and won't care

One day, you won't be able to hurt me

I won't fall asleep with you on my mind

That day, you'll come back to me

 

That day, I'll die again
