Always On My Mind

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going there... But I like it here, wherever it is."

I've loved this song ever since I first heard it when I was thirteen. It's just... always been beautiful.

There's a good story behind this song, I think. Apparently Elvis first sang it a while after divorcing his wife. But that's not really what I'm thinking of. I'm thinking that this would be a great song to write into a story I'm writing. And I think I've found a place for it in my current project. But I'm not certain.

From what I've heard from and observed of boys, this isn't real. They don't ever like a girl so much that she's always on their mind. They only think about one thing at a time, and we're rarely top priority. So we're not "always on their minds". But as girls, we can think of more than one thing at once, and it's quite possible for them to be always on our minds. Basically, we love them more than they can love us. And that sucks.

Mr. Bingley has pleaded that he doesn't think that is the case with all guys, and says he doesn't think that's the case with him. But I think he's wrong.

So yeah. Basically, I wish this song could be real.
