Damien Rice - Never and Always On My Mind Lyrics

You left it.
I sent it.
I want it back.

You left it.
I sent it.
I want it back.

If I had you here
I'd clip your wings,
Snap you up,
And leave you sprawling
On my pin.

This plan of mine
Is Oh so very lame.
Can't you see
The grass is greener
Where it rains?

And you left...
I died.

I went...
And you cried.

You came...
I think.

But I never really know.

Now I've served my time.
I've watched you climb
The wrong incline.
But you never really know.

Accept it.
Don't let it
F*ck you up.

Accept it.
Don't let it
F*ck you up.

This applies equally
To you and I...
The only thing
We've shared
Is the same sky.

These empty metaphors...
They're all in vain.
Can't you see
The grass is greener
Where it rains?

And you left...
I died.

I went...
You cried.

You came...
I think.

But I never really know.

Now I've served my time.
I've watched you climb
The wrong...
You left it.
I sent it.
I want it back.
You never really know.

Accept it...
Don't let it
F*ck you up.

You never really know.

You left...
I died.

I went...
You cried.

You came...
I think.

You never really know.

I've served my time.

I've watched you climb
The wrong incline.

You never really know.
You never really know.

Maybe I didn't hold you
Quite as good as I should have
And I guess I never told you
Quite as often as I could have
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time

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

You never really know
You never really know
