Lyrics

Lately baby, i've been thinkin' How good it was when you were here And it ain't the wine that i' ve been drinkin' For once i feel my head is spinning But early this mornin', when i opened my eyes, That old lonesome feelin' took me by surprise I guess you meant more than i realized The love we had stays on my mind The love we had stays on my mind And pretty girl, i've been rememberin' The good times that we used to share My thoughts of you don' t have an endin' And the memories of you are everywhere' But why should i tell you it's not your concern You win some, you lose some, i've lost and i've learned Its just that im so lonely with no place to turn And year after year i find The love we had stayed on my mind Girl, if you were nearer If you had a mirror Maybe you could count my tears And if you were nearer It would all be clearer How i wish that you were here (mmm, mmm) How i wish that you were here (how i wish, that you were here) (How i wish that you were here And baby girl, i was tired So i laid down to dream awhile But lately i've been so uninspired Without the comfort of your smile But i'm not complainin' 'Cause that's how it goes There's always some heartache in this world i suppose But you can't imagine nobody knows The love we had stays on my mind (Stays on my mind) The love we had stays on my mind I never will forget you baby The love we had stays on my mind Why how can i tell you Ad lib...
