ONLY IN MY MIND
(Reba McEntire)


Reba McEntire - 1985




On a park bench in the middle of July
We sat and watched the children play
If it was the heat or the noise
He didn't have too much to say
Then with a move of his eyes
A move that could've made the wind stand still
He took my hand in his and said the words
That I never will forget

He said, "Have you ever cheated on me?
Has there been someone else
Is there someone you love more than me
Someone you can't forget
Get his memory in the open again
Let it be chased away by time"
He said, "Have you ever cheated on me?"
I said, "Only in my mind"

How can I tell him
The time we spent together
Was time between friends
There's just somethings I can talk about with you
That I can't just talk to him
How can I tell you
That somewhere in the cards it was meant for us to meet
Why am I blushing in front of him now
Is it you or the heat

He said, "Have you ever cheated on me?
Has there been someone else
Is there someone you love more than me
Someone you can't forget
Get his memory in the open again
Let it be chased away by time"
He said, "Have you ever cheated on me?"
And I said, "Only in my mind"

"Darlin', have you ever cheated on me?"
And I said, "Only in my mind"
