lyrics

1
Well I wish that I could take back
everything I said
when I was begging in the dark
from my side of the bed
when I thought I’d live without you
but I needed you instead

And you were on my mind
You’re always on my mind
Yes you were on my mind
You’re always on my mind

2
Desperate in the mirror
like it could barely stand
I was praying my goodbyes
to my kids and my friends
with the pills in the bottles,
their caps in my hands

But you were on my mind
You’re always on my mind
Yes you were on my mind
You’re always on my mind

---I’m tired of hating and blaming myself
and hiding from shadows that i can’t outrun
i’m tired of prescriptions making me numb
well I loved you once, and I always will
yes I loved you once, and I always will
I loved you one time, and I always will---

3
Silent at the steering wheel
hospital ride
counting the seconds
til you said goodbye
I was watching us age
from the passenger side
