Now I'm lyin' here with Linda on my mind
And next to me, my soon-to-be, the one I left behind
And Lord, it's killin' me to see her cryin'
She knows I'm lyin' here beside her
With Linda on my mind
Yes, I know that I once loved her
And I placed no one above her
And I never thought I'd ever set her free
But it just wasn't in my plans
The way Linda squeezed my hand
The first time that I held her close
As she danced with me
She said, I've loved you for a long time
But you're married to a friend of mine
And I'd try hard to never
Let it show
But my love for you is stronger
I can't hide it any longer
And so I thought I'd better let you know
That I'm lyin' here with Linda on my mind
And next to me, my soon-to-be, the one I left behind
And Lord, it's killin' me to see her cryin'
She knows I'm lyin' here beside her
With Linda on my mind
Yes, I know that I once loved her
With Linda on my mind
