(source songfacts.com) Lyrics of "Always On My Mind" Maybe I didn't love you Quite as often as I could have Maybe I didn't treat you Quite as good as I should have If I made you feel second best Girl I'm sorry I was blind But you were always on my mind You were always on my mind Maybe I didn't hold you All those lonely, lonely times I guess I never told you That I am so happy that you're mine If I made you feel second best Girl I'm sorry I was blind But you were always on my mind You were always on my mind Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn't died Give me, give me one more chance To keep you satisfied I'll keep you satisfied Little things I should have said and done I just never took the time But you were always on my mind You were always on my mind Youwere always on my mind You were always on my mind More versions of this classic tune... first up: The King!
