back of my mind - john hiatt lyrics

Loading...

well my daddy he stood at the foot of the stairs
he was calling to me at the time
and i knew even then, i could die for the thoughts
that i kept in the back of my mind

but i dared not to speak
how i felt for my dad
cause there were no words to define
the ball of confusion, of feelings and junk
that i kept in the back of my mind

so i took to the highway
and i kept to myself
just a lookin’ and hopin’ to find
some solutions, some answers, someway to exist
with this stuff in the back of my mind

so i took me a job
and i took me a wife
and i took me a bottle of wine
and it did not take long, ’til all i had left
was this stuff in the back of my mind

well the end of the tunnel
just never came up
’til i came to the end of the line
and i saw that the light i’d been hoping to see
was just a spark in the back of my mind

and the cold wind that blew
through the hole in my heart
made a fire for the very first time
from some branches of trust
and a kindling of faith
and that spark in the back of my mind

drivin’ like rain, or a runaway train
flyin’ blind, shot from the dark in the back of my mind
