Leavin' On Your Mind is a famous Country/Pop song written by Wayne Walker and was popularized by Patsy Cline in 1963.

In 1963 Patsy Cline was at the height of her career. In the meantime, she was looking for her next single to release for the upcoming year. Wayne Walker wrote the song for her called "Leavin' On Your Mind". Cline released the song in January 1963 and it became a top ten Country hit for Cline. The sad thing about the song was that it failed to gain success on the Pop charts, like her other hits did, like the songs "Crazy" and "I Fall to Pieces". However, the song today remains a classic in Country music. Initially, Cline was going to release the single on her next upcoming, fourth album called "Faded Love", along with two other singles that year. However the album was never released.

The album was never released due to a the tragic event that ended her life, which was a plane crash that March. The album was to be released at the end of March. Instead, the album was released on a double compilation album called "The Patsy Cline Story". This album featured all of Cline's big hits, starting for her first in 1957 to 1963. The album was a huge hit and is still being sold today.

The song was featured on the ABC drama series Lost in episode three of the first season entitled "Tabula Rasa".

A cover was recorded by Rissi Palmer on her self-titled debut album.
