The Last Thing on My Mind

The Last Thing on My Mind - Porter Wagoner/Dolly Parton

Written by：Tom Paxton

It's a lesson too late for the learning made of sand made of sand

In the wink of an eye my soul is turning

In your hand in your hand

Are you going away with no word of farewell

Will there be not a trace left behind

I could've loved you better didn't mean to be unkind

You know that was the last thing on my mind

As we walk alone my thoughts're tumbling

Round and round round and round

Underneath our feet a subway's rumbling

Underground underground

Are you going away with no word of farewell

Will there be not a trace left behind

I could've loved you better didn't mean to be unkind

You know that was the last thing on my mind

I got reasons of plenty for going this

I know this I know

The weeds have been steadily growing please

Don't go please don't go

Are you going away with no word of farewell

Will there be not a trace left behind

I could've loved you better didn't mean to be unkind

You know that was the last thing on my mind

Are you going away with no word of farewell

Will there be not a trace left behind

I could've loved you better didn't mean to be unkind

You know that was the last thing on my mind

You know that was the last thing on my mind
