17岁时,布雷已累积了许多演唱经验,他很明确地知道自己的方向。布雷之所以正式踏入乐坛,多亏了加拿大的前首相布莱恩莫隆尼(Brian Mulroney)。本身也是传统流行乐爱好者的莫隆尼在听过布雷的歌声后,大为惊叹,并将布雷介绍给同乡的音乐名人戴维佛斯特。当布雷在布莱恩莫隆尼女儿的婚礼上献唱巴比达林的名曲Mack The Knife,佛斯特和布雷一拍即合,随即布雷便正式签入华纳音乐集团旗下的143/Reprise厂牌。
Maybe I didn't treat you Quite as good as I should have Maybe I didn't love you Quite as often as I could have Little things I should have said and done I just never took the time
You were always on my mind You were always on my mind
Maybe I didn't hold you All those lonely, lonely times And I guess I never told you I'm so happy that you're mine If I make you feel second best Girl, I'm sorry I was blind
You were always on my mind You were always on my mind
Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn't died Give me, give me one more chance To keep you satisfied, satisfied satisfied
Little things I should have said and done I just never took the time You were always on my mind You are always on my mind You are always on my mind Maybe I didn't treat you Quite as good as I should have Maybe I didn't love you Quite as often as I could have
Maybe I didn't hold you All those lonely, lonely times And I guess I never told you I'm so happy that you're mine Maybe I didn't treat you
