🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
Maybe I didn’t love youQuite as often as I could haveMaybe I didn’t treat youQuite as good as I should haveIf I made you feel second bestGirl, I’m sorry I was blindYou were always on my mindYou were always on my mindMaybe I didn’t hold youAll those lonely, lonely timesI guess I never told youThat I’m so happy that you’re mineLittle things I should have said and doneI just never took the timeYou were always on my mindYou were always on my mindTell meTell me that your sweet love hasn’t diedAnd give meGive me one more chanceTo keep you satisfiedI’ll keep you satisfiedLittle things I should have said and doneI just never took the timeYou were always on my mindYou were always on my mindYou were always on my mindYou were always on my mind
