The Back Of My Mind

by Trevor Morgan, Years Later Music (ASCAP) / Goodwin Trev Music (ASCAP)

You’re always in the back of my mind
I swear I think about you all the time
I can’t break this hold you’ve got on me
And I’m praying that I never will shake free
I catch you in the corner of my eye
And wonder how you always take me by surprise
I could travel to an unfamiliar place
And everywhere I’d turn, I’d see your face

When I run
You chase me
When I fall
You brace me
When I’m lost
You find me just in time
You’re always in the back of my mind

You’re always on the tip of my tongue
There’s a part of you in every song I’ve sung
You’re the melody that bring me to my feet
The breath behind the words I speak

When I run
You chase me
When I fall
You brace me
When I’m lost
You find me just in time
You’re always in the back of my mind

You’re always in the back of my mind
I swear I think about you all the time
You’re everything I never thought you’d be
The mystery that’s slowly solving me

When I run
You chase me
When I fall
You brace me
When I’m lost
You find me just in time
You’re always in the back of my mind

If the life of a musician is grueling, then the life of a musician’s spouse is pure torture.

Think of all that you sign on for – the crazy schedules, lonely nights, unstable income, long-distance phone calls, constant barrage of insecurity-filled questions (Does this lyric make sense? Do you like the melody? Does my hair look okay?)…it’s enough to drive anyone insane.

But here’s the most unbelievable part – my wife wouldn’t have it any other way. She understands that this is what God has called us to, and I am humbled and honored everyday that I get to spend the rest of my life with her. I wrote this song to let her know that, wherever I am, she is always with me.
