Always in the Back of My Mind

[Intro]

Oh, you're always in the back of my mind

[Verse 1]

Nothing ever changes

Oh, I wish to god it did

Just another drink and you'll be gone

Oh it's 2 a.m. raining again

I saw you making faces in the river

Only me, down by the quay

Just a sad reflection that I give you

[Verse 2]

Oh, I thought time would burn it

Burn it down to the ground

Just another breeze and you'll be strong

Driving home, all on my own

Just a passenger in all that we lost

Satisfy, oh, lord don't deny

I see your face in the everything that's near 'cause

[Chorus]

Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind

Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind

[Verse 3]

Oh, I have all the memories

The winter of '82

When down upon the ice you saw me melt

Washed up on the rocks again

Oh it's 2 a.m. raining again

I saw you making faces in the river

Only me, down by the quay

Just a sad reflection that I give you

[Chorus]

Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind

Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind

[Bridge]

Washed up on the rocks again

Oh, don't you know that it's so damn hot

And the things you do

Oh I won't ever learn

Ooh I won't ever learn

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]

Washed up on the rocks again

Oh, don't you know that it's so damn hot

And the things you do

I won't ever learn

I won't ever learn

I won't ever learn

[Chorus]

Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind

Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind

Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind

Ooh, you were always in the back of my mind

In the back of my mind

[Outro]

In the back of my mind

In the back of my mind
