  • Before you gotta go, go, go, go
    I wanted you to know, know, know, know
    You're always on my mind
    You're always on my mind
    If something were to happen my dear
    I wouldn't want the last words you hear
    To be unkind, to be unkind

    We got angry, said some careless things
    Who was wrong remains unclear
    Pride like poison
    Always keeping score
    You don't have to slam the door

    Before you gotta go, go, go, go
    I wanted you to know, know, know, know
    You're always on my mind
    You're always on my mind
    If something were to happen my dear
    I wouldn't want the last words you hear
    To be unkind, to be unkind

    Don't you know I'm not your enemy
    Maybe let's cut out caffeine
    Tomorrow's too late to reminisce
    Call me when you get this

    Before you gotta go, go, go, go
    I wanted you to know, know, know, know
    You're always on my mind
    You're always on my mind
    If something were to happen my dear
    I wouldn't want the last words you hear
    To be unkind, to be unkind

    Money down the drain
    Funny, how things change
    You got to get away
    Yeah, I know and I don't blame you Writer/s: Courtney Barnett
