I let my mind wander, And what did it do? It just kept right on going, Until it got back to you. I let my mind wander. Can't trust it one minute, It's worse than a child. Disobeys without conscience, It's drivin' me wild, When I let my mind wander. Try to keep my mind busy, On thoughts of today. But invariably, memories, Seem to lure it away. My lonely heart wonders, If there'll ever come a day, When I can be happy, But I can't see no way, 'Cause I let my mind wander. [Instrumental] I try to keep my mind busy, With thoughts of today.
