It Never Entered My Mind
Unveiling the Unseen Depths: Sarah Vaughan's Journey Through Love and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
I don't care if there's powder on my nose
I am indifferent to having makeup on my nose.
I don't care if my hairdo is in place
I don't mind if my hairstyle is perfect or not.
I've lost the very meaning of repose
I've lost the sense of tranquility and relaxation.
I never put a mudpack on my face
I never use a cosmetic mudpack on my face.
Oh, who'd have thought that I'd walk in a daze
Unexpectedly, I find myself in a state of confusion or bewilderment.
Now I never go to shows at night but just to matinees
I usually attend daytime performances instead of evening shows.
Now I see the show and home I go
After watching the show, I return home.
Once I laughed when I heard you saying
I used to laugh when you predicted I would play solitaire.
That I'd be playing solitaire
Feeling uneasy in my comfortable chair.
Uneasy in my easy chair
It never crossed my mind.
It never entered my mind
You once corrected me when I thought I would wake up with the sun.
Once you told me I was mistaken
I'd order orange juice for myself, alone.
That I'd awaken with the sun
It never entered my mind.
And order orange juice for one
It never entered my mind
You now experience what I used to find amusing.
You have what I laughed myself
And now I even have to scratch my back myself
You warned me that if you rejected me, I would revisit old memories.
Once you warned me that if you scorned me
To have you in my life again, even if it means facing challenges.
I'd sing the maiden's prayer again
To feel your influence in my life again.
And wish that you were there again
To have you close and intimately involved in my life again.
To get into my hair again
It never entered my mind.
It never entered my mind
