[Verse 1]
It's a lesson too late for the learnin'
Made a stand, made a stand
In the wink of an eye, my soul is turnin'
In your hand, in your hand

[Chorus]
Are you going away with no word or farewell?
Will there be not a trace left behind?
Whoa baby, I could've loved you better
I didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind

[Verse 2]
As we walk along, my thoughts are tumblin'
Round and round, round and round
Underneath our feet the subway's rumblin'
Underground, rumblin' underground

[Chorus]
Are you going away with no word or farewell?
Will there be not a trace left behind?
Whoa baby, I could've loved you better
I didn't mean to be unkind
Don't you know that was the last thing on my mind
[Verse 3]
You got reasons but plenty more comin'
This I know, baby, yeah, I know
For the week, I've been steadily growin'
Please don't go, baby, please don't go

[Chorus]
Are you going away with no word or farewell?
Will there be not a trace left behind?
Whoa baby, I could've loved you better
I didn't mean to be unkind
Don't you know that was the last thing on my mind, yeah, yeah

[Outro]
Don't you know that was the last thing on my mind
On my mind, on my mind
