"Always On My Mind"
It's something about you that brings me a lovely though,
A thought that puts joy into my lonely heart.
Whenever I think of you, I just lay back and smile,
And I've been thinking like this for quite a while.
The sight of you makes me feel so good,
And I would make you mine only if you said I could.
Thoughts of you bring me lots of pleasure,
Just like I found a great big treasure.
So many days and nights I dream about being with you,
And sharing a love that is oh so true.
Memories of hearing your sweet voice make me feel so high,
Just like I was an eagle soaring in the pretty blue sky.
Visions of seeing your beautiful face seem to stimulate me,
And make me feel like we were meant to be.
Thoughts of seeing your smile brings hoy into my eyes,
Just like I was awarded with a Nobel Peace Prize.
So as you can see, thinking of you keeps me occupied all of the time.
And I'll surely be happy as long as you're Always On My Mind.
