"Elvis Song" lyrics

"Elvis Song"

(You were always on my mind)

Cold bench on a platform
Last train on the Northern Line
I'm trying to keep you out my mind

Too drunk for a drawbridge
Your name floods when my eyes are shut
We found love
You gave it all and I gave it up

I don't do it often
But when no one's watching
No one's watching
I'm thinking 'bout

Late nights in the old arcade
Drinking cheap wine as Elvis plays
Singing, "You were always on my mind"
I was yours and you were mine
Breakfast on your sofa bed
Thinking, "Oh God, I'm in over my head!"
You were always on my mind
You're always on my mind

I got no right to miss you
All I did was kiss and fly
Each time I stayed another night

I was scared to throw my heart off the edge
Easier to tell myself we'd mess it up instead
So I left
But it plays 'round in my head

I don't do this often
But when no one's watching
No one's watching
I'm thinking 'bout

Late nights in the old arcade
Drinking cheap wine as Elvis plays
Singing, "You were always on my mind"
I was yours and you were mine
Breakfast on your sofa bed
Thinking, "Oh God, I'm in over my head!"
You were always on my mind
You're always on my mind

(Mind mind mind) You are always always always on my mind
(Mind mind mind) You are always always always on my mind

In my mind, I hear it and I know nothing's changed
In my mind, we share earphones on a midnight train
And I've tried, you moved on and I moved a little too
But I still wish things were different, don't you?
I never wanna stop thinking 'bout

Late nights in the old arcade
Drinking cheap wine as Elvis plays
Singing, "You were always on my mind"
I was yours and you were mine
Breakfast on your sofa bed
Thinking, 'Oh God, I'm in over my head!"
You were always on my mind
You're always on my mind

(Mind mind mind)
You are always always always on my mind
(Mind mind mind)
You are always always always on my mind
(Mind mind mind)
You are always always always on my mind
(Mind mind mind)
You are always on my mind
