Cross Your Mind

You might be the most beautiful woman in the world
Or maybe just someone so misunderstood
And you might stand tall up on some big stage
Yeah be all the rage with that beautiful smile
How it would drive me wild
Or maybe you’re just happy being free
Tucked away with a little piece of country
Full of tall pine trees
Fresh country air
I could see you there
Maybe a little house up on a hill
With a little pond and flowing green fields
A picture of a place in my mind
Sometimes I wish I could find
Maybe just to cross your mind
Time to time

Or maybe you were never really there
Something I dreamed of that vanished into air
Maybe as you close your eyes to sleep
You get just a little piece of me
Maybe a little smile
Just a glimmer in your eye
I might pass you in a dream
Maybe one small tear will fall
Or maybe you feel nothing at all
Maybe I never cross your mind

I write my heart that’s what I do
And that might not mean much
To most of you
And I play and sing my songs
What I feel not what others see as real
But sometimes just sometime
Maybe I cross your mind
And on a good day
If this old guitar plays my way
With a soft melody
She just might hear me
Maybe say my name
With that smile like that night in the rain
Or maybe I’ll just fade away
Lost to a memory of yesterday

Maybe she can hear this plea
In the bending of these old guitar strings
And the words from my lips
How they stumble and trip and come out all wrong
Like the words to this song
But hell I just play along
And sometimes maybe just sometime
I cross your mind
Maybe as you close your eyes to sleep
You get just a little piece of me
Maybe a little smile
I might pass you in a dream
Maybe one small tear will fall
Or maybe you feel nothing at all

Or maybe on some crowded street
Your right in front of me
I hear your voice as you look my way
Or will you just turn and walk away
Maybe you have nothing to say
Could it be I’m just all wrong for you
This is just something you can’t do
Sometimes maybe just sometimes
I just might cross your mind
Maybe one small tear will fall
Or maybe you were never really here at all
Just a picture in my mind
I wish I could find
