Lyrics of On My Mind by Ellie Goulding

intro

Oh
Oh-ah, oh oh, oh
Ay

verse

It's a little blurry how the whole thing started
I don't even really know what you intended
Thought that you were cute and you could make me jealous
Poured it down, so I poured it down
Next thing that I know I'm in a hotel with you
You were talking deep like it was mad love to you
You wanted my heart but I just liked your tattoos
Poured it down, so I poured it down

pre-chorus

And now I don't understand it
You don't mess with love, you mess with the truth
And I know I shouldn't say it
But my heart don't understand

chorus

Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my-
But my heart don't understand
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
(Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh)

verse

Now I always hear, always hear them talking
Talking 'bout a girl, 'bout a girl with my name
Saying that I hurt you but I still don't get it
You didn't love me, no, not really
Wait, I could have really liked you
I'll bet, I'll bet that's why I keep on thinking 'bout you
It's a shame (It's a shame)
You said I was good
So I poured it down, so I poured it down

pre-chorus

And now I don't understand it
You don't mess with love, you mess with the truth
And I know I shouldn't say it
But my heart don't understand

chorus

Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my-
But my heart don't understand
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody (Why I got you on my mind)
You think you know somebody (Why I got you on my mind)
You think you know somebody (Why I got you on my mind)

bridge

You got yourself in a dangerous zone
'Cause we both have the fear, fear of being alone

pre-chorus

And I still don't understand it
You don't mess with love, you mess with the truth
And my heart don't understand it, understand it, understand it

chorus

Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody (Why I got you on my mind)
You think you know somebody (Why I got you on my mind)
You think you know somebody (Why I got you on my-)
But my heart don't understand
Why I got you on my mind
You think you know somebody (Why I got you on my mind)
You think you know somebody (Why I got you on my mind)
You think you know somebody (Why I got you on my-)
But my heart don't understand
Why I got you on my mind

outro

You think you know somebody
You think you know somebody (Why I got you on my mind)
You think you know somebody
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ahh, ah)
