Lyrics
Chorus:
She doesn't miss me when I'm gone. She doesn't miss me when I'm gone. I think about her, from dusk 'til dawn, but she doesn't miss me when I'm gone. (end of chorus)
She doesn't make the time for me. She doesn't make the time for me. She makes excuses, so it's easy to see. She doesn't make the time for me.
My friends all say I should quit wasting my time; stop clinging to this self-imposed illusion. But it's hard to accept and even harder to find, an escape from this sobering conclusion. That...
(Chorus)
My mind keeps saying, "move on with your life, you've many more important things to do." But my heart keeps playing along with the charade, hoping we're mistaken, hoping it's not true... that...
(Chorus)
