Can I pretend for a moment that you are not on my mind?
And can I pretend that I don't miss you at all?
For a moment I just want to erase you from my life
No matter how hard I try to pretend your name never leaves me
And I'm not sure why
I miss you so badly and I wonder deep down do you just think of me a little
Do you ever miss me like you said you would?
Do you ever close your eyes at night and see my face?
For one moment I want you to realize that no matter what I say
I really want to be with you
Because with you I know I can be myself
Deep down in my mind I'm saying to myself that you belong with me
I wish you could see how I'm losing my mind not being able to speak to you
I need you right now and your not around
The other night when I thought I was going to die all I could think about is that I needed you
You can call me hopeless that's alright with me
I'm just hopeless because I'm falling for you
I know I shouldn't be thinking about you but you are all I think about
And I wish just for a moment that you could see that I need you now
Going around in circles I'd find myself going crazy
Every time I turn around something reminds me of you
I'd try to bury the thoughts of you away
I've tried erasing your name from my heart and soul
But for some reason your name still floats and lingers
And I'm stuck trying to figure out why you even came into my life
You are all I think about even when I'm around other people
I don't know why but there has to be a reason why your on my mind
Just for a moment I wish you were around just to make me smile and
Telling me everything's going to be okay
Just for a moment I wish you could see that maybe I'm meant to be yours and you are meant to be mine
But just for a moment tonight I want to push these thoughts out of my mind
So maybe I can lay down and get some sleep tonight
Then wake up and think of you all over again and wonder if maybe your missing me like I'm missing you
