on my mind

i was youtube surfing the other day and came across a music video by EBTG for a song i've never heard before. you see i'm a big EBTG fan and i thought i have all of their songs but i was so wrong! tracey and ben started out as solo artists from the cherry records label sometime during the early 80's and "On My Mind" was one of their early collaborations. the song is included in a compilation called "Pillows and Prayers" (a cd which i'm soon getting online i swear :D)

here's the video. i'm posting the lyrics as well, which i lovingly transcribed since i cannot find it anywhere on the web. enjoy!



you got me feeling so happy
(feeling so sad)
i only smile now when you’re with me
(she got it bad)
i look around for someone new
(wasting her time)
but no one can compete with you
(that’s a bad sign)
my friends I don’t care what they say
(talking to you)
when my heart’s a million miles away
(what can I do)
and I don’t know whether to laugh or cry
(please don’t ask me)
but I know I kiss my heart goodbye
(well that’s easy)

we tell her how she’s wasting her time
still she finds
you’re on my mind
on my mind

and every day is just another
(day without you)
and I don’t know why I bother
(thinking about you)
i see you should I…run and hide
when I get home I slam the door and shut the world outside

we tell her how she’s wasting her time
still she finds
you’re on my mind
on my mind
