“I Can’t See Your Face in My Mind” is the penultimate track on The Doors' second album, September 1967’s Strange Days, appearing just before “When The Music’s Over” on the ten-song tracklist. Sonically, it can be perceived as a sort of falling action before the climactic resolution of the 11-minute...
[Verse 1]
I can't see your face in my mind
I can't see your face in my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
Carnival dogs
Consume the lines
Can't see your face
In my mind
[Chorus]
Don't you cry
Baby, please don't cry
And don't look at me
With your eyes
[Verse 2]
I can't seem to find the right lie
I can't seem to find the right lie
Insanity's horse
Adorns the sky
Can't seem to find the right lie
[Pre-Chorus]
Carnival dogs
Consume the lines
Can't see your face
In my mind
[Chorus]
Don't you cry
Baby, please don't cry
I won't need your picture
Until we say goodbye
