I want you to notice if I’m not around
I want you to miss me when I cannot be found.
I want you to love me as I love you
What I want doesn’t matter not even to a few.
When you’re not around the sun doesn’t shine
When I’m not around I don’t think you mind.
I wonder if it’s always been that the way
And I just didn’t realize ‘til today.
When you’re not around my mind tries to pursue
The reasons why you do as you do.
Is it from me that you’re trying to run
Or my imagination having cruel fun?
When you’re not around I feel so depressed
Abandoned, forsaken, desolate, and oppressed.
When I’m not around I don’t know how you feel
You keep things inside never expressing what’s real.
Yes I want you to love me, I really do
I want you to love me as I do you.
I want you to miss me when I cannot be found
I want you to notice if I’m not around.
