I let my mind wander
and what did it do
i just kept right on goin'
until it got right to you
can't trust it one minute
it's worst than a child
this old face without conscience
and it's driving me wild
when i let my mind wander
I try to keep my mind busy
with thoughts of today but
in terrible mem'ries
seem to lure it away
my lonely heart wonders
if there'll ever come a day
when i can be happy
but i can't see no way
cause i let my mind wander...
