You lay so easy on my mind oh so easy on my mind. Whenever I need you all I have to do is close my eyes. You lay so easy on my mind yes so easy on my mind.
(You wouldn't know love if it look you in the eye). You look at me but you don't see me. I talk to you but you don't hear me. Your indifference just beats all I've ever seen.
You changed everything about me but my name. My self respectin' pride had turned to shame. And after all you changed you changed your mind. You changed everything about me but my name.
Lately you spent a lot of time at parties. Your head held high in a world of make believe. You don't hear a word that I tell you and I can see you no longer care for me.
When I awoke this morning I looked around and you were back. My mind's finally done it it's gone and jumped the track. And all day long it's been this way it's been yesterday all day long today.
You've come to tell me something you say I ought to know. That he don't love me anymore and I'll have to let him go. Oh you say you're gonna take him oh but I don't think you can.
A little bit of tenderness a little bit of love and care. And when she needs you a litle bit of bein' there. A little bit of kissin' and occasional hurt.
Oh oh woman's gotta make a stand somewhere. There's no happiness to find running here and there. Wanderlust may torture me at times but I don't care. Cause a woman's gotta make a stand somewhere.
We both know a certain party I won't mention any names. But you think you love this party who's brought me so much pain. I don't know what he's told you but I'll bet you think he's free.
These things that you promised for certain will you forget them when I'm out of sight. Or will you really be here tomorrow to do what you promised tonight.
Lately he's been dining out when his hungry lips need fed. You no longer serve him love and a heart could starve to death. You've pushed him from the table it's no longer spread with care.
Why why why can't you understand. That golden wedding band you wear on your left hand means that you're mine. Why why why can't I make you see though you still think you're free.
Why don't you love me like you used to do. How come you treat me like a worn out shoe. My hair's still curly and my eyes are still blue. Why don't you love me like you used to do.
What would you do what would you do if Jesus came to spend some time with you. If Jesus came to your house to spend a day or two. If he came unexpectedly I wonder what you'd do.
I am going to a city where the streets with gold are laid. Where the tree of life is blooming and the roses never fade. Here they bloom but for a season soon their beauty is decayed.
I wonder which one of us is to blame. The nicest thing that's come my way is you but I cannot offer you my heart or name. Oh it isn't fair to do me like you do I wonder which one of us is to blame.
What locks the door to the world you're living in?. What kind of key do I need to get in?. I tried anything from solid gold to cent. What locks the door to the world you're living in?.
Lord what more can I do you've do so much for me. I'll speak your name every hour and help the blind to see. You've given me a voice and it will praise your name.
I've stood at weddings and watched the best man smile. When I knew that he loved the bride. Never once did I dream that some poor girl was watchin' and dyin' inside.
You want me to prove my love for you. But I'm surprised that the way you're asking me to. You've known me so long I can't understand what kind of a girl do you think I am.
