(Marshall Crenshaw / Bill Teeley)  

       

  I think about you and forget what I've tried to be 

Everything is foggy and hard to see 

It seems to be, but can it be, a fantasy? 

Whenever I think about you, strangers eyes in the crowd flash past 

I go on and think of the fate you've cast 

It seems to be a reverie, you're here with me 

'Cause whenever you're on my mind

Whenever you're on my mind

I leave the world behind 

Whenever you're on my mind 

I think about you and I'm weak though I'm in my prime 

Set my watch and still lose the track of time 

It seems to be, but can it be, a fantasy? 

Whenever I think about you



I could be almost anywhere

I'd lose myself without you but I don't care

It seems to be a reverie, you're here with me 

'Cause whenever you're on my mind

Whenever you're on my mind

I leave the world behind, whenever you're on my mind 



I never thought I'd be in this situation 

It seems wherever I go I'm with you 

And though I never seem to find my place 

At every turn I see your face 

Whenever I think about you

It seems to be a reverie, you're here with me

'Cause whenever you're on my mind

Whenever you're on my mind

I leave the world behind 

Whenever you're on my mind...
