got you on my mind

i saw you this mornin'

though you were nowhere in sight

but i've got to admit

that the thought of you hangs around me

like a hand on my shoulder

like a fly on my nose

i got you on my mind

i got you on my mind

well i tried to catch the moon in a butterfly net

but i tripped and it slipped from my hand

and it fell into the sea

but at least i know where the moon is hiding

and just like the moon

i got you on my mind

i got you on my mind

now some nights i'll be sitting at home

starin' at some old magazines

and i wonder could somebody tell me

whatever happened to those back seat plans

did they drive off with the man?

i tell you

a girl stays single 'cause she don't like men

or maybe she likes them too much

me

i like them not too much or too little

but times were easy and so was i

was i in love with you or just in love with love.?

i got you on my mind

i got you on my mind

got you on my mind

i got you on my mind

there were days when i was feelin' so low

brought us close as no good times could

there were moments so full of understanding

and i couldn't bear to see them end

ooo

i'd like to be in love again

i got you on my mind

i got you on my mind

said

i gotchu

can't seem to get you off my mind

i got you on my mind

just like a hand on my shoulder

like a fly on my nose

i got you on my mind.
