Always In The Back Of My Mind

(album: Parade - 1984)

Ooh, you're always in the back of my mind, ooh

Nothing ever changes, oh, I wish to God it did
Just another drink and you'll be gone

Oh, it's two am raining again
I saw you making faces in the river
Only me, down by the quay
Just a sad reflection that I give you

I thought time would burn it
Burn it down to the ground
Just another breeze and you'll be strong

Oh, I'm driving home, all on my own
Just a passenger in all that we lost
Satisfy, oh, Lord, don't deny
I see your face in the everything that's near 'cause

Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind
Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind

Ooh, I have all the memories, the winter of eighty-two
When down upon the ice you saw me melt

Oh, it's two am raining again
I saw you making faces in the river
Only me, down by the quay
Just a sad reflection that I give you

Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind
Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind

Ooh, washed up on the rocks again
Oh, don't you know that it's so damn hot
And the things you do?
I won't ever learn, ooh, I won't ever learn

Oh, washed up on the rocks again
Oh, don't you know that it's so damn hot
And the things you do?
I won't ever learn, I won't ever learn
Ooh, I won't ever learn, I won't ever learn

Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind
Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind
Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind
Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind
In the back of mind

You're in the back of mind
In the back of mind
