I went away for a little while
I came back home 'cause you made me smile
But I think I'm leaving forever this time
And there you'll be in the back of my mind

In the back of my mind
So far behind
I'll only hold onto you
In the back of my mind

I went away, I was on my own
Taking you with me was all I'd known
But I think I like it, this freedom I find
And our love will live in the back of my mind

In the back of my mind
So far behind
I'll only hold onto you
In the back of my mind

In the back of my mind
So far behind
In the back of my mind
Forever this time
