Daddy, You Been On My Mind

Perhaps it's the colour of the sun cut flat
And covering the crossroads I'm standing at
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
But daddy, you're on my mind

I don't mean trouble, please don't put me down
Don't get upset I am not pleading or saying "I can't forget you"
I do not passed the floor, lie down and bent but yet
Daddy you're on my mind

You know my mind is hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow
Where you been don't bother me or bring me down in sorrow
I don't even mind who you're waking with tomorrow
But daddy, you're on my mind

I am not asking you to say words like 'yes' or 'no'
Please understand me, I have a place I'm calling you to go
I just lose breath to myself so I pretend that I don't know
That daddy, you're on my mind

When you wake up in the morning baby look inside your mirror
You know I won't be next to you, you know I won't be near
I'd just be curious to know if you could see yourself as clear
As someone who has had you on her mind
