Curtis Mayfield – The Girl I Find Stays On My Mind lyrics

Here's another girl
And I am afraid that she'll be gone
Like the others before her

And here's another chance
To make myself belong
And this time I wanna keep her

For this girl I find
Stays on my mind
She has opened up my eyes
As though I were blind

Oh Lord, I must find the strength somewhere
For I find I really care
And today's opportunity has at last
Found someone to share
The things I wouldn't have dared
'Cause I never felt that were meant for me

But this girl I find
Stays on my mind
She has opened up my eyes
As though I were blind

This girl I find
Stays on my mind
She has opened up my eyes
As though I were blind

Oh Lord, I must find the strength somewhere
'Cause I find I really care
And today's opportunity has at last
Found someone to share
The things I wouldn't have dared
'Cause I never felt that were meant for me

And here's another girl
And I am afraid that she'll be gone
Like the others before her

Here's another chance
To make myself belong
And this time I wanna keep her

If she's really for me
If she's really for me
I am gonna wait and see
I am gonna wait and see

If she's really for me
If she's really for me
I am gonna wait and see

I love you, I love you
I am gonna wait and see
If you're really for me
