Lyrics

I remember back in August, or was it late July?
I had this thing, this fling with a guy from way upstate.
I think his name was Joey, or was it George, or maybe Sam?
Anyway, on paper we were great.
He took me out for dinner
To this restaurant I loved.
The food was nice, and the chemistry just grew.
But back at his apartment, when he leaned in to kiss me,
All I could think about was you.
You were on my mind.
This guy was perfect, but you were on my mind.
Though he was just my type.
He was charming, he was sweet,
But he could never compete with you.
All I could think about was you.
I tried again to move on
With this guy I met online,
Who had a PhD at only twenty-four.
He picked up every check,
Always treated me with respect.
How could I have ever wanted more?
Even back at his house
With his jacuzzi and his gym
He never hinted there was more he could persue
But cuddling him with Netflix on
And the next steps very clear,
All I could think about was you.
You were on my mind.
This guy was perfect, but you were on my mind.
Though he was just my type
He was rich and free of scandal,
But he couldn't hold a candle to you.
All I could think about was you.
How your smile gave me butterflies,
And your voice gave me chills.
How I loved the feeling of your hand in mine.
And when you played guitar and sang our song
The world seemed to fade away
And I knew we'd always be fine...
You're on my mind.
I know we were far from perfect,
But you're still on my mind.
Did we give up too soon?
Is it too late to turn back now?
Is the life we could have led forever gone?
Cause all I can think about is you.
