Always on my mind

Every day, every night

Your star burns so bright

Why did I push you away?

I was scared sometimes

You had a power like a lightning strike

When I'm on stage sometimes I lie

Say that I love singing these songs you left behind

And I know you always said, "It's okay to cry"

So I know I can cry, I can cry

So I cry.

Wish I'd tried to pull you closer

You pushed me hard made me focus

Your words, brutal, loving, truthful

I was petrified

You're a hero and a human

Track was done I'd make excuses

You'd say, "come on, stay for dinner"

I'd say, "no, I'm fine"

Now I really wish I'd stayed.

Always on my mind

Every day, every night

Your star burns so bright

Why did I push you away?

I was scared sometimes

You had a power like a lightning strike

When I'm on stage sometimes I lie

Say that I love singing these songs you left behind

And I know you always said, "It's okay to cry"

So I know I can cry, I can cry

So I cry.

Guilty feelings keep me fractured

Got a phone call after christmas

Didn't know how I should act

I watched you dance online

Your sounds, your words live on endless

When I make songs I remember

Things you'd suggest - "make it faster!"

Would you like this one?

Maybe just a little bit.

Always on my mind

Every day, every night

Your star burns so bright

Why did I push you away?

I was scared sometimes

You had a power like a lightning strike

When I'm on stage sometimes I lie

Say that I love singing these songs you left behind

And I know you always said, "It's okay to cry"

So I know I can cry, I can cry

So I cry.
