The Love We Had (Stays On My Mind) letra

Lately baby
I've been thinking

How good it was
When you were here

And it ain't the wine
That I been drinking

For once I feel
My head is clear

But early this morning
When I opened my eyes
That old lonesome feeling
Took me by surprise
I guess you meant more
To me than I realized
The love we had stays on
My mind
The love we had stays on
My mind

And girl
I've been remembering
The good times that we used
To share
My thoughts of you
Don't have an ending
And memories of you
Are everywhere

But why should I tell you
It's not your concern
You win some, you lose some
Well I've lost and I've learned

it's just that i'm so lonely
With no place to turn
And here at the end
I find
The love we had
Stays right on my mind

The love we had stays on my mind
Girl, if you were nearer
If you had a mirror
Maybe you could count my tears

And if you were nearer
It would all be clearer

How I wish that you were here

How I wish that you were here
How I wish that you were here

And baby girl I was tired
So I laid down to dream a while
And lately I've been so uninspired
Without the comfort of your smile

But I'm not complaining
'Cause that's how it goes
There's always some heartache
In this world I suppose
But you can't imagine
But nobody knows

The love we had
Stays on my mind
The love we had
Stays on my mind
The love we had
Stays on my mind
The love we had stays on my mind
