Jimmy on My Mind Lyrics

Now I'm lying here with Jimmy on my mind
And next to me, my soon to be the one I left behind
Oh Lord, it's killing me to see him cryin'
You know I'm lying here beside him with Jimmy on my mind

Yes, I know that I once loved him and I place no one else above him
And I never thought I'd ever set him free
But it just wasn't in my plans, the way Jimmy squeezed my hand
The first time that he held me close as he danced with me

He said I've loved you for a long time, but you're married to a friend of mine
And I tried hard to never let it show
But my love for you is stronger, I can't hide it any longer
And so I thought I'd better let you know

Now I'm lying here with Jimmy on my mind
And next to me, my soon to be the one I left behind
Oh Lord, it's killing me to see him cryin'
He knows I'm lying here beside him with Jimmy on my mind

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
