DADDY, YOU'VE BEEN ON MY MIND
(Bob Dylan)
Perhaps its the color of the sun cut flat
And covering the crossroad I'm standing at
Or maybe its the weather or something like that
But Daddy, you've been 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 and bent, but yet
Daddy, you've been on my mind
Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow
Where you been don't bother me or bring me down in sorrow
It don't even matter to me where you're waking up tomorrow
Daddy, you've just been on my mind
I am not asking you to say words like yes and no
Please understand me, I got no place for you to go
I'm just breathing to myself pretending not that I don't know
Daddy, you've been 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 near
I'd just be curious to know If you can see yourself as clear
As someone who has had you on her mind
