Be Quiet Mind

Lynn Anderson · Songs My Mother Wrote [Chart] [1970]

(Liz Anderson)



Every night and every day you go on the same old way

Do you have to keep reminding me he's gone now

And you're saying I was wrong but I knew that all along

So be quiet mind we stayed away too long now.



Now that he's no longer mine you think of him all the time

If you let me be I might forget him somehow

Yes, I've lost my love it's true do I have to lose you too

Please be quiet mind, I want to go to sleep now.

Well, it's almost breaking dawn must he still go on and on

We'll just learn to get along without him

For the only thing you do is to drive me out of you

Please be quiet mind let's hear no more about him.



Now that he's no longer mine you think of him all the time

If you let me be I might forget him somehow

Yes, I've lost my love it's true do I have to lose you too

Please be quiet mind, I want to go to sleep now.



Please be quiet mind, I want to go to sleep now...
