I've Slipped Her Mind Songtext
von Robert Cray

I lit two brand new candles
Set two glasses out for wine
Two hours ago
She was due here anytime
I′m starting to believe
I've slipped her mind

Friday night, she′s coming
Got the day circled in red
I planned this night all day
High hopes, high hopes running through my head
Had big plans for love and romance
Oh, I got the blues instead


Both candles just burned out
I sip the wine 'til it's gone
Called her place all evening
But the phone rings on and on
Two hours ago
She was due here anytime
And I′m starting to believe, yeah
Oh, I′ve slipped her mind

Both candles just burned out
I drank the wine 'til it′s gone
Called her place all evening
But the phone rings on and on
Two hours ago
She was due here anytime
And I believe, I believe, I believe
I've slipped her mind

I believe, I believe
Oh, that I′ve slipped her mind
Oh, no, no, don't tell me that this is it
I planned this night all day, baby
How can you be so cold to young Bob?
No, no, no, no, no
Two hours ago, and it′s been five
No, no, I can't take this, I can't take it no more
I′m just about to give up on the whole damn thing, baby
No, no, no, no, I can′t take no more
