Back Of My Mind

Jackie Greene

One, two, one, two, three, four

Well, I'm not convinced that my memory is so good
Good as it should be when I stood by love
Some friends are recall
Never upon it all
But they live at the back of my mind

The back of my mind
The back of my mind
Where all the memories go
I can find
The pictures of youth
Both lie and the truth
They live at the back of my mind

Now I'm not an expert on know Mexico
They seem like they figured it out long ago
You work with your hands
You dance when you can
And you make love like the gods

For many of months I've found myself lost
I sweat to the summer
I froze to the frost
This place should have changed
But it all looks the same
It just twists in the back of my mind

The back of my mind
The back of my mind
Where those the lights go when it goes blind
The day dreams
The path dreams
The far in my pledge dreams
It lives at the back of my mind

It's one for the money
It's two fo the show
It's three for my baby
She breaks my heart so
Pain is like love
To take out the gloves
When all you desire is the rain

The back of my mind
The back of my mind
How many lives can one man live behind
It's true they don't stay but they don't go away
They just live at the back of my mind
