(Lying Here With) Linda on My Mind

Ronnie Milsap · Night Things [RCA Victor] [1975]

(Conway Twitty)



Now, I'm lying here with Linda on my mind

And next to me my soon to be, the one I left behind

And Lord, it's killing me to see her cryin'

She know I'm lying here beside her, with Linda on my mind.



Yes, I know that I once loved her and I place no one above her

And I never thought I'd ever set her free

But it just wasn't in my plans the way Linda squeezed my hand

The first time that I held her close as she danced with me.



She said, ''I've loved you for such a long time

But you're married to a friend of mine

And I try hard to never let it show

But my love for you is stronger and I can't hide it any longer

And so I thought I'd better let you know.''



Now, I'm lying here with Linda on my mind

And next to me my soon to be, the one I left behind

And Lord, it's killing me to see her cryin'

She know I'm lying here beside her, with Linda on my mind...
