Lately baby, I've been thinking How good it was when you were here And it ain't the wine that I been drinking For once I feel my head is clear But early this morning, when I opened up my eyes That old lonesome feeling took me by surprise I guess you meant more to me than I realized The love we had stays on my mind The love we had stays on my mind And lately girl, I've been remembering The good times that we used to share My thoughts of you don't have an ending And memories of you are everywhere But why should I tell you, it's not your concern You win some, you lose some Well I've lost and I've learned Sisqo's so lonely With no place to turn And here at the end, I find Yes I do The love we had stays on my mind Girl, if you were nearer If you had a mirror Maybe you could count my tears And if you were nearer It would all be clearer How I wish that you were here How I wish that you were here How I wish, how I wish How I wish that you were here And baby girl I was tired So I laid down to dream for a little while But lately I've been so, so uninspired Without the comfort of your smile But I'm not complaining Cuz that's how it goes There's always some heartache In this world I suppose But you can't imagine But nobody knows The love we had stays on my mind The love we had stays on my mind The love we had stays on my mind...
