Gentle On My Mind Lyrics - Aretha Franklin

It's knowing that your 

Door is always open 

And your path is 

Free to walk 

That makes me know that 

I can leave my sleeping bag 

Behind your couch 

It's knowing I'm not shackled 

By forgotten words and bonds 

And your ink stains that 

Have dried upon some line

Every Lyric From Shawn Mendes' Self-Titled New Album 

Keeps you on the backroads 

By the rivers of my memory 

It keeps you ever 

Gentle on my mind 

It's not clinging to 

Some rocks and ivy 

Planted on some column now 

That binds me, no, it don't 

Or something that somebody said 

Because they thought we 

Fit together walking 

It's knowing that the world 

Will not be cursing or forgiving 

When they turn around and find 

Photos 

That you're 

Moving on the backroads 

You're still on my memory 

You're ever gentle on my mind 

(Gentle on my mind, yeah) 

(Gentle on my mind, yeah)...
