Time On My Mind
©2007 Wendell Kimbrough

You forgot about the mistake of your life
And the things you packed in the car in the back when you met your wife
It was daylight when you escaped from your past
But it’s different than you’d think, ‘cause your memories did not last

Come on singer do you not remember how
To make these sounds and let me feel the way I want to now?
Married friends are difficult I’ve found
Easy to touch base with, so much harder to expound

Does having sex turn around your head,
So you can’t hear the friends who are not in your bed?
It sounds like I’m putting blame on you, but I’m not.
Cause there’s something strange every time that we talk,
It’s deeper than us and it’s no one’s fault.
So we’re not close, but I know you’re my friend.

Maybe I have lost my mind, or maybe I have too much time.

So I’ve landed here in a life of my own
And it’s only my own no one else has to know what I’m thinking of
I’m a drink poured out on a countertop spread wide
Cause I can’t hold my shape with no one else to draw the lines

Am I really alone in this life of mine?
Is all of this waste really called my time?
Does it matter to you or to anyone else what I do?
In the heat of the day I can hear your voice,
You’re telling me there’s such a thing as choice,
And you’re asking me, who I want to be.

Maybe I have lost my mind, or maybe I have too much time.
