Townes Van Zandt — Last Thing on My Mind

[Verse 1] Well, it's a lesson too late for the learning Made of sand, made of sand In a wink of an eye my soul is turning In your hand, in your hand [Chorus] Are you going away with no words of farewell? Will it be not a trace left behind? Well, I could have loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind You know that was the last thing on my mind [Verse 2] As I lay in my bed in the morning Without you, without you Every song in my heart dies upon you Without you, without you [Chorus] And are you going away with no words of farewell? Will there be not a trace left behind? Oh, I could have loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind You know that was the last thing on my mind [Verse 3] You've got reasons aplenty for going This I know, this I know For the weeds have been steadily growing Please don't go, please don't [Chorus] Are you going away with no words of farewell? Will there be not a trace left behind? Well, I could have loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind You know that was the last thing on my mind Are you going away with no words of farewell? Will there be not a trace left behind? Well, I could have loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind You know that was the last thing on my mind
