It Never Entered My Mind
Unveiling Love's Deception: A Musical OdysseyLyrics
Once I laughed when I heard you saying
Initially, I found amusement when you said...
That I'd be playing solitaire
...that I would be alone and contemplative, playing solitaire.
Uneasy in my easy chair
I felt uneasy even in my comfortable and relaxed space.
It never entered my mind
However, the idea of being alone never occurred to me.
And once you told me I was mistaken
Once you corrected me, stating...
That I'd awaken with the sun
...that I would wake up with the sunrise,
And ordered orange juice for one
ordering orange juice for just myself.
It never entered my mind
Yet, the thought of solitude never crossed my mind.
You had what I lack, myself
You possessed qualities I lacked, but...
Now I even have to scratch my back myself
Now I find myself having to attend to my own needs, even scratching my own back.
Once you warned me that if you scorned me
Previously, you cautioned me that if you rejected me...
I'd say a lonely prayer again
...I would find myself uttering lonely prayers once more.
And wish that you were there again
I would long for your presence and wish you were with me again.
To get into my hair again
Even enduring the annoyances you brought would be preferable to loneliness.
It never entered my mind
However, the idea of separation never entered my mind.
Once you warned me that if you scorned me
Repeating the warning that if you rejected me...
I'd say a lonely prayer again
...lonely prayers and longing for your presence would resurface.
And wish that you were there again
Again, the desire for your companionship and interference in my life.
To get into my hair again
Yet, the prospect of separation remained absent from my thoughts.
It never entered my mind
Despite the warnings and changes, the idea of being alone never entered my mind.
