Mama You’ve Been On My Mind - Demo

Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat
And cov'ring the crossroads I'm standing at
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
Mama, you're just on my mind

I don't mean trouble, please
Don't put me down or get upset
I am not pleading
Or saying I can't forget
I do not walk the floor bowed down an' bent, but yet
Mama, you're just on my mind

Mm-mm
Mm-mm

I am not asking you to say words like "yes" or "no"
Please understand me
I am not calling for you to go
I'm just breathing to myself, pretending
Not that I don't know
Mama, you're just on my mind

When you wake up in the morning
Baby, look inside your mirror
You know I won't be next to you
You know I won't be there
I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
As someone who has had you on his mind

Mm-mm
Mm-mm

Someone who has had you on his mind

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Or maybe it's always there was something like that
Mama, you're just on my mind
