When A Man Can't Get A Woman Off His Mind
(Don McLean)
When I see you on the street
I lose my concentration
And just the thought that we might meet
Creates anticipation
Won't you look my way once before you go
And my eyes will say what you ought to know
Well, I've been thinking about you day and night
And I don't know if it will work out right
But somehow I think that it just might
If we try
Faces come and faces go in circular rotation
But something yearns within to grow
Beyond infatuation
Won't you look my way once before you go
And my eyes will say what you ought to
When I see you on the street
I lose my concentration
And just the thought that we might meet
Creates anticipation
Won't you look my way once before you go
And my eyes will say what you ought to know
Well, I've been thinking about you day and night
And I don't know if it will work out right
But somehow I think that it just might
If we try
Faces come and faces go in circular rotation
But something yearns within to grow
Beyond infatuation
Won't you look my way once before you go
And my eyes will say what you ought to
The Loved One
Yonder she's walking
She comes my way
Her red dress on
Her long black hair
Walking like
Talking like
Wanting like
She comes to me
Oh baby
I love you so
I need you now
I want you back
I can't go on
Helpless baby
Evil child
I've known you well
And if you want to stay
That's alright
You want me again
And then you come a running to me
Well baby baby
That's alright
That's alright
That's alright
And now she's gone
She's walking away
Her red dress on
Her long black hair
Well I love her so
And now she'll come running
Anytime I say now
I want you back
I can't go on
Oh baby I love you so
I need you now
I want you back
I can't go on
I love you so baby
I need you so
I want you back
I can't go
I can't go on
