Today I woke up
And the thought of you crossed my mind
I remember how we planned
Of leaving this town behind.
But now that is the past
And you and I are through
Because you wouldn't change
I had to say goodbye to you.
Now I rarely think of you
Because I have a new man
One who loves me for me
And he always understands.
Sometimes I will find myself
Thinking about you
That is why I'm wondering
Do you think of me too?
When it's cold on Saturday nights
Or when it's Sunday and there's rain
Your ghost dwells in my room and it slowly drives me insane,
Sometimes when I'm breathing
I swear I can smell you here
But I know that I'm just crazy
My lost love, you aren't even near.
And when I close my eyes
As I'm laying in my bed
I can almost here you whisper
Even if it's just inside my head.
I look at your picture and I tremble
Oh the pain that photo brings
Because I remember how you lied
And said things you didn't mean.
So now I sit and wonder
Do you still think of me?
When you're laying in your bed
What is it you see?
Is it a silhouette of my ghost
In a dark corner on your wall?
Or do you know it's just your coat?
Do you think of me at all?
When August 23rd rolls by
Will I cross your mind?
Or will you just kiss your new girl
And leave my memory behind?
These thoughts are driving me crazy
Because I should know by now we're forever through.
But my losing it has shown me this:
Yes, I truly did love you.
But I will never let you know
Because I know you won't understand
All I can do is hope that your ghost leaves
While I hold on tight to my new man.
