Thread Name: Grovelling Songs (Male?)
Subject: Lyr Add: AMAZED TO FIND (Kate Wolf)
Charley Noble mentioned this on 14-Oct-2003. I couldn't find an online recording by Kate Wolf, so I transcribed a different one. I hope it's close.

I wouldn't call this grovelling. She isn't asking the absent person to return. She doesn't even say whether having this person on her mind is pleasant or unpleasant. This is a lot less like grovelling than some of the other songs in this thread.


AMAZED TO FIND
Written by Kate Wolf
As sung by Clay County on "All the Good Times"

1. After all is said and done,
A few things lost, a few things won,
I can say I've had a full and a happy life,
But in the quiet of the night,
When I turn out the light,
I'm amazed to find you're still on my mind.

CHORUS: I'm amazed to find,
I'm amazed to find that you're still on my mind.
It will hit me without warnin'
Early in the mornin':
I'm amazed to find you're still on my mind.

2. I could be talking with my friends,
Or out walking at day's end,
Or just doing the things that fill my time,
But at the closing of the day,
When my troubles fade away,
I'm amazed to find you're still on my mind.
