SOMETHING ON YOUR MIND BY KAREN DALTON

I woke up this morning with this amazing song going around in my head. Karen Dalton is one of the truly great singers of all time, and this stark and sorrowful rendition of Something On Your Mind is as beautiful as anything I have ever heard. Love Susie. x

Something On Your Mind


Yesterday, any way you made it was just fine

So you turned your days into night-time

Didn't you know, you can't make it without ever even trying?

And something's on your mind, isn't it?

Let these times show you that you're breaking up the lines

Leaving all your dreams too far behind

Didn't you see, you can't make it without ever even trying?

And something's on your mind

Maybe another day you'll want to feel another way, you can't stop crying

You haven't got a thing to say, you feel you want to run away

There's no use trying, anyway

I've seen the writing on the wall

Who cannot maintain will always fall

Well, you know, you can't make it without ever even trying

Something's on your mind, isn't it?

Tell the truth now, isn't it?

Something's on your mind, isn't it?

Something's on your mind
