Lynn Anderson – Keep Me In Mind, was a No. 1 country hit for vocalist and entertainer Lynn Anderson in 1973, and was the title track of an album released the same year.
This song was one of 11 No. 1 country hits for Anderson. Her career was still going strong three years after her major crossover hit, “(I Never Promised You A) Rose Garden”. By this time, Anderson’s material had changed to more sophisticated country music, Countrypolitan, which was all about producing and recording more pop-oriented songs in order for country singers to attract a larger listening audience. Even though this song had no hint of traditional country, the song did not make the Billboard’s Pop Hot 100 chart. However, she would crossover onto the pop charts with future hits.

Lynn Anderson – Keep Me In Mind Lyrics
When everything right seems to go wrong
Your heart wants to sing but it can’t find a song
When it seems that the world has left you behind
Keep me in mind
When you think that life is just passing you by
You look but you can’t find a reason to try
When it seems that a friend is so hard to find
Keep me in mind
Keep me in mind cause i’ll never stop loving you
And as long as i live i’ll have love to give
And i’ll give it all to you just you
When the dreams that you’ve chased have all gotten away
And you stand at the end of a long lonely day
You will never be far from these arms of mine
Keep me in mind
When the dreams that you’ve chased have all gotten away…
GENIUS
