Last Thing On My Mind Lyrics - Jean Shepard

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... 

[ ac.guitar ] 

You've 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... 

You know that was the last thing on my mind
