You're On My Mind

Saw you just a week ago  
Couldn’t bring myself to say hello  
Still, you’re on my mind

I can’t forget the way you looked  
Hair light brown and eyes of blue  
Never even spoke with you
You still linger on my mind

I may not be in love with you
But someday I sure hope I do
And maybe you’ll feel that way too
Not today but perhaps in time

You’re still on my mind
A memory I can’t leave behind  
So blue, so kind—those eyes defined  
Why you’ll always be on my mind
