🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • You were always on my mind
  • You were always on my mind
  • And maybe I didn't hold you
  • All those lonely, lonely times

Echo the hook

  • I just never took the time
  • You were always on my mind
  • You were always on my mind
  • Tell me
alwaysmindmaybe
