Lyrics to Lately
Lately I've been planting flowers
And watching movies
Trying to keep my mind occupied
They say it takes ten thousand hours
So, I'm learning Beethoven sonatas
One measure at a time
But the truth, is baby you

You've been on my mind, on my mind, onmy mind lately
When I say lately, I mean every second since you been gone
No matter what I do, it all comes back to you every time
Lately you been on my mind

Lately I been walking circles around my neighborhood
And reading Dostoevsky at night
Watercolors, jigsaw puzzles
Any kind of distraction that I can find

'Cause you been on my mind, on my mind, on my mind lately
When I say lately, I mean every second since you been gone
No matter what I do, it all comes back to you every time, every time
Lately you been on my mind
You been on my mind
Lately you been on my mind

Lately I stare at your number
Wish I was able to
Just call up and tell you

You been on my mind, on my mind, on my mind lately
When I say lately, I mean every second since you been gone
No matter what I do, it all comes back to you every time
'Cause lately you been on my mind
Lately you've been on my mind
Lately you've been on my mind
