It Never Entered My Mind Lyrics - Miles Davis Quintet

Once I laughed when I heard you saying 

That I'd be playing solitaire 

Uneasy in my easy chair 

It never entered my mind. 

And once you told me I was mistaken 

That I'd awaken with the sun 

And ordered orange juice for one. 

It never entered my mind. 

You had what I lack, myself 

Now I even have to scratch my back myself. 

Once you warned me that if you scorned me, 

I'd say the maiden's prayer again 

And wish that you were there again 

To get into my hair again. 

It never entered my mind.
