The Last Thing on My Mind

[Verse 1] It's a lesson too late for the learnin' Made of sand, made of sand In the wink of an eye my soul is turnin' In your hand, in your hand [Chorus] Are you goin' away with no word of farewell? Will there be not a trace left behind? Well, I could have loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind You know that was the last thing on my mind [Verse 2] You've got reasons a-plenty for goin' This I know, this I know For the weeds have been steadily growin' Please don't go, please don't go [Chorus] Are you goin' away with no word of farewell? Will there be not a trace left behind? Well, I could have loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind You know that was the last thing on my mind [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] As I lie in my bed in the mornin' Without you, without you Each song in my breast dies a-bornin' Without you, without you [Chorus] Are you goin' away with no word of farewell? Will there be not a trace left behind? Well, I could have loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind You know that was the last thing on my mind That was the last thing on my mind
