Lately baby I've been thinking

How good it was when you were here

And it ain't the wine that I been drinking

For once I feel my head is clear

But early this morning when I opened up my eyes

That old lonesome feeling took me by surprise

I guess you meant more to me than I realized

The love we had stays on my mind

The love we had stays on my mind

And boy I've been remembering

The good times that we used to share

My thoughts of you don't have an ending

And memories of you are everywhere

But why should I tell you it's not your concern

You win some you lose some

Well I've lost and I've learned

Sisqo's so lonely

With no place to turn

And here at the end I find

The love we had stays on my mind

Girl if you were nearer

If you had a mirror

Maybe you could count my tears

And if you were nearer

It would all be clearer

How I wish that you were here

How I wish that you were here

How I wish that you were here

And baby boy I was just so tired

So I laid down to dream for a little while

But lately I've been so so uninspired

Without the comfort of your smile

But I'm not complaining

Cuz that's how it goes

There's always some heartache

In this world I suppose

But you can't imagine

But nobody knows

The love we had stays on my mind

The love we had stays on my mind

The love we had stays on my mind
