I Just Can't Get You Out Of My Mind

(album: Main Street People - 1973)

Call me, were the last words I remember
Then the spring became December
And I still got no reply

Politely, I would ask whoever knew ya
What it was that I did to ya
But they all knew less than I

If this letter doesn't make it clear
Its been a cold and lonely year
In my empty bed, in my head I can feel you near

Oh, I just can't get you out of my mind
Don't you have a heart, I've served my time
Oh, it just ain't right what I'm going through
Ten to one, I'm betting, girl there's no forgetting you

It's funny on the outside love was showing
And I had no way of knowing
You were all mixed up inside

Oh baby, if we'd only done some talking
You could've saved yourself some walking
Well, I guess they call that pride

I swear you haven't been away too long
I can still hear your favorite song
This was once your home, on my own now, it feels all wrong

Oh, I just can't get you out of my mind
Don't you have a heart, I've served my time
Oh, it just ain't right what I'm going through
Ten to one, I'm betting, girl there's no forgetting you

Oh, baby [?] oh sugar
If this letter doesn't make it clear
It's been a cold and lonely year
In my empty bed, in my head I can feel you near

Oh, I just can't get you out of my mind
Don't you have a heart, I've served my time
Oh, it just ain't right what I'm going through
Ten to one, I'm betting, girl there's no forgetting you

Oh, I just can't get you out of my mind
Don't you have a heart, I've served my time
Oh, it just ain't right what I'm going through
Ten to one, I'm betting, girl there's no forgetting you
