Today's song of the day is Always on my Mind. Written in 1972 by Wayne Carson, Johnny Christopher and Mark James and released that same year by Brenda Lee and Elvis Presley, the song was never a huge hit until 1982 when Willie Nelson hit number one and won 3 grammy awards. It was the biggest country music hit of 1982 and wound up selling over 2 million records. 

In addition, it was my Grandmother's favorite song.

Let me know what you think.


Always On My Mind


Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
If I made you feel second best
Girl I'm sorry I was blind

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

And maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine

Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
But you were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn't died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied
I'll keep you satisfied

Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
But you were always on my mind
You were always on my mind 
You were always on my mind 
You were always on my mind
