MY MIND WON'T MIND ME
(Jerry Lane)


Jerry Lane - 1967


I've done everything I know to make my memory let you go
And tried to recover from the fall
But it keeps clingin' to every little thought of you
And my mind just won't mind me at all

I put all my thoughts aside, told 'em how you hurt my pride
And of every heartache that I could recall
These things are with me yet and somehow I must forget
But my mind just won't mind me at all

(Instrumental Break)

Like a disobeying child, it keeps runnin' wild
And dreams of you each night just like before
I've tried to make it see you no longer care for me
But my mind just won't mind me anymore

I put all my thoughts aside, told 'em how you hurt my pride
And of every heartache that I could recall
These things are with me yet and somehow I must forget
But my mind just won't mind me at all
