I Was Rarely On Your Mind
When you said that you loved me,
though you knew it wasn't true,
had you planned your betrayal,
as a thing you had to do?
Wasn't even your second best,
how could I've been so very blind?
I was rarely on your mind,
(I was rarely on your mind)
I was rarely on your mind.
Maybe I was in the wrong place,
at the lonely, lonely times,
but you never once told me,
you were happy I was yours.
And those things you should have said and done,
guess you just never made the time.
I was rarely on your mind,
(I was rarely on your mind)
I was rarely on your mind.
Tell me,
tell me how you lived with me and lied,
and give me,
give me from your grave the tears I have so cried,
that I so cried.
And those things you should have said and done,
guess you just never made the time.
I was rarely on your mind,
(I was rarely on your mind)
I was rarely on your mind.
I was rarely on your mind.
(I was rarely on your mind)
I was rarely on your mind.
