Lately

[Verse 1]
Lately, I've been planting flowers
And watching movies
Trying to keep my mind occupied
They say it takes ten thousand hours
So, I'm learning Beethoven's sonatas
One measure at a time
But the truth is, baby, you

[Chorus]
You've been on my mind, on my mind, on my mind lately
When I say lately, I mean every second since you've been gone
No matter what I do, it all comes back to you every time
Ooh, yeah, lately, you've been on my mind

[Verse 2]
Lately, I've been walking circles
Around my neighborhood
And reading Dostoevsky at night
Watercolors, jigsaw puzzles, hm
Any kind of distraction that I can find

[Chorus]
'Cause you've been on my mind, on my mind, on my mind lately
When I say lately, I mean every second since you've been gone
No matter what I do, it all comes back to you every time
Ooh, yeah, lately, you've been on my mind

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-ooh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, yeah, lately, you've been on my mind

[Bridge]
Lately, I stare at your number
Wish I was able to
Just call up and tell you
Oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh

[Chorus]
You've been on my mind, on my mind, on my mind lately
When I say lately, I mean every second since you've been gone
No matter what I do, it all comes back to you every time
Every time 'cause lately, you've been on my mind

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-ooh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh, yeah
Lately, you've been on my mind
Oh-ooh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh
Lately, you've been on my mind
