Always On My Mind
Vince Kidd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time, uh uh
You were always on my mind
Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely lonely times
And I guess I never told you, unh
I'm so happy that you're mine
If I make you feel second best, yeah, yeah
Girl, I'm sorry I was blind, uh uh
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
Tell me, tell me
That your sweet love hasn't died
Give me, give me
One more chance to keep you satisfied, satisfied
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Little things I should have said and done, yeah
I just never took the time, whoa oh
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind, you were always on my mind
The lyrics to Vince Kidd's "Always On My Mind" depict a remorseful lover who realizes his mistakes in neglecting his partner. He apologizes for not treating her well enough or loving her as often as he should have. The song is full of regret and the longing to make things right. The singer recognizes that he never took the time to show his love and affection for his partner, which leads him to feel guilty for not being attentive enough to her needs. The repetition of the phrase "You were always on my mind" emphasizes his regret and the fact that his partner has always held a significant place in his heart, even if he failed to express it.
The song is a classic example of a love ballad, with its slow tempo, soulful melody, and heartfelt lyrics. It is a testament to the power of regret and the hope of redemption, as the singer seeks to make amends for his past mistakes. The message of the song is clear – we should never take our loved ones for granted because they are always on our minds, even if we don't express it.

I love his voice, and I totally admire his style. So glad he did not change his personality in the competition. It was refreshing to he someone true and genuine. What a talent, this guy can take songs already made top hits by other artists and twist the hell out of the song and make me feel in love with the song all over again.
