Lately

Lately I've been planting flowers
And watching movies
Trying to keep my mind occupied
They say it takes ten thousand hours
So, I'm learning Beethoven sonatas
One measure at a time
But the truth, is baby you

You've been on my mind, on my mind, onmy mind lately
When I say lately, I mean every second since you been gone
No matter what I do, it all comes back to you every time
Lately you been on my mind

Lately I been walking circles around my neighborhood
And reading Dostoevsky at night
Watercolors, jigsaw puzzles
Any kind of distraction that I can find

'Cause you been on my mind, on my mind, on my mind lately
When I say lately, I mean every second since you been gone
No matter what I do, it all comes back to you every time, every time
Lately you been on my mind
You been on my mind
Lately you been on my mind

Lately I stare at your number
Wish I was able to
Just call up and tell you

You been on my mind, on my mind, on my mind lately
When I say lately, I mean every second since you been gone
No matter what I do, it all comes back to you every time
'Cause lately you been on my mind
Lately you've been on my mind
Lately you've been on my mind
