you are on my mind is an extension of 'le stade du miroir'. 'you are on my mind' is an echo of some now forgotten popular song and refers to the idea that in our minds, we carry around the presence of many people, whether they are family or friends or casual acquaintances. 'you are on my mind' focuses on a relationship between two people, who are together and apart at the same time suggesting that in the end we are all alone.
