Last Thing on My Mind
by Tom Paxton
4/4 time
Verse 1:
| | | |
It's a lesson too late for the learning,
| | | |
made of sand, made of sand.
| | | |
In the wink of an eye my soul is turning
| | | |
In your hand, in your hand.
Refrain:
| | | |
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
| | | |
Will there be not a trace left behind?
| | | |
I could have loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind
| | |
That was the last thing on my mind.
Verse 2:
You've got reasons aplenty for going.
This I know, this I know.
For the weeds have been steadily growing.
Please don't go, please don't go.
Repeat Refrain
Verse 3:
As I lie here in bed in the morning
without you, without you.
Every song in my breast dies a borning
without you, without you.
Repeat Refrain twice
