Always on My Mind

"Always on My Mind" is a ballad written by Wayne Carson, Johnny Christopher, and Mark James, first released by Gwen McCrae (as "You Were Always on My Mind") in 1972. Brenda Lee also released a version in 1972. The song has been a crossover hit, charting in both the country and western and pop categories. AllMusic lists over 300 recorded releases of the song in versions by dozens of performers. While Lee's version stalled at number 45 on the US country chart in 1972, other performers reached the top 20 in the United States and elsewhere with their own versions: Elvis Presley in 1972; John Wesley Ryles in 1979; Willie Nelson's Grammy Award-winning version in 1982; and Pet Shop Boys in 1987. more »

Now for the first time 
I can look past my eyes
Stare through the strain of light 
Wondering why
Tell me who did this to me?
Did I do this to me?
There's gotta be a reason you don't look safe to me

I cage myself 
And you turned to someone else

It's not my fault that you're broken 
It's not my fault that you're hurting, no

You want to fill my needs 
With your inconsistency 
How can you hold me when you're building your dreams?
Won't you listen to me?
Can you listen to me?
Your voice is nothing but static
But it won't affect me

I cage myself
And you turned to someone else

It's not my fault that you're broken 
It's not my fault that you're hurting, no
I'm torn up and insensitive 
And if you think I care it's denial, oh

And I'm sorry that I can't 
Simplify your life
And I'm sorry that I can't Sympathize
And I'm sorry that I can't 
Simplify your life
And I'm sorry that I can't 
Sympathize

It's not my fault that you're broken 
It's not my fault that you're hurting, no
I'm torn up and insensitive
And if you think I care it's denial, oh
