[Verse 1: Neil Tennant]
Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could

[Pre-Chorus 1: Neil Tennant]
Little things I should have said and done
I never took the time

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

[Verse 2: Neil Tennant]
Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine

[Pre-Chorus 2: Neil Tennant]
If I made you feel second best
I'm so sorry I was blind

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

[Post-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
Tell me
Tell me that your sweet love hasn't died
Give me
One more chance to keep you satisfied
Satisfied

[Interlude]

[Pre-Chorus 1: Neil Tennant]
Little things I should have said and done
I never took the time

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

[Post-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
Tell me
Tell me that your sweet love hasn't died
Give me
One more chance to keep you satisfied

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

[Verse 1: Neil Tennant]
Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could

[Verse 2: Neil Tennant]
Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine
