Lately - Johnny Mathis

Lately, I have had the strangest feeling

With no vivid reason here to find

Yet the thought of losing you’s been hanging 'round my mind

Far more frequently you’re wearing perfume

With you say no special place to go

But when I ask will you be coming back soon

You don’t know, never know

Well, I’m a man of many wishes

Hope my premonition misses

But what I really feel my eyes won’t let me hide

'Cause they always start to cry

'Cause this time could mean goodbye

Lately I’ve been staring in the mirror

Very slowly picking me apart

Trying to tell myself I have no reason with your heart

Just the other night while you were sleeping

I vaguely heard you whisper someone’s name

But when I ask you of the thoughts your keeping

You just say nothing’s changed

Well, I’m a man of many wishes

I hope my premonition misses

But what I really feel my eyes won’t let me hide

'Cause they always start to cry

'Cause this time could mean goodbye, goodbye

Oh, I’m a man of many wishes

I hope my premonition misses

But what I really feel my eyes won’t let me hide

'Cause they always start to cry

'Cause this time could mean goodbye
