Song Lyrics

"My Mind Played A Trick On Me"

by Charlie Peacock
Album: ...In The Light - The Very Best Of

There goes my baby, walking out the door,
She never had that look of confidence when she walked out before,
She said, "Don't look for me 'til you do what you know you've got to do,
Don't you dare ask for me 'til your wicked ways are through."

My mind played a trick on me,
Was I blind'
Tell me, how come I didn't see'
You knew all along that I would sing this song,
If there's a God...a God in Heaven, resurrect me,
Forgive my wicked ways, redirect me.

Oh, my...my mind played a trick on me,
Oh, my...my mind played a trick on me.

Now I have lost it all, and my sky's no longer blue,
All I see is heavy weather, baby, over losing you,
You say you won't...won't come back to me 'til this boy becomes a man,
In light of what I've done to you, I must admit I understand.

My mind played a trick on me,
Was I blind'
How come I did not see'
'Cause you knew all along that I would sing this song,
If there's a God...a God in Heaven, resurrect me,
Please forgive my wicked ways, redirect me.

Oh, my...my mind played a trick on me,
Oh, my...my mind played a trick on me,
Oh, my...my mind played a trick on me.
