It Never Entered My Mind

Once I laughed when I heard you saying

That I'd be playing solitaire

Uneasy in my easy chair

It never entered my mind

Once you told me that I was mistaken

That I'd awaken with the sun

And ordered orange juice for one

It never entered my mind

You had what I lack, myself

Now I even have to scratch my back myself

Once you warned me that if you scorned me

I'd say a lonely prayer and then

I wish you were there again

To get into my hair again

But it never entered my mind
