Whenever you're on my mind (demo, 1979)

Whenever you're on my mind (demo, 1979) Lyrics

(Marshall Crenshaw / Bill Teeley)

I think about you and forget what I've tried to be
Everything is foggy and hard to see
It seems to be, but can it be, a fantasy?
Whenever I think about you, strangers eyes in the crowd flash past
I go on and think of the fate you've cast
It seems to be a reverie, you're here with me
'Cause whenever you're on my mind
Whenever you're on my mind
I leave the world behind
Whenever you're on my mind
I think about you and I'm weak though I'm in my prime
Set my watch and still lose the track of time
It seems to be, but can it be, a fantasy?
Whenever I think about you

I could be almost anywhere
I'd lose myself without you but I don't care
It seems to be a reverie, you're here with me
'Cause whenever you're on my mind
Whenever you're on my mind
I leave the world behind, whenever you're on my mind

I never thought I'd be in this situation
It seems wherever I go I'm with you
And though I never seem to find my place
At every turn I see your face
Whenever I think about you
It seems to be a reverie, you're here with me
'Cause whenever you're on my mind
Whenever you're on my mind
I leave the world behind
Whenever you're on my mind...
