Maybe this decision was a mistake You probably don't care what I have to say But it's been heavy on my mind for months now Guess I'm trying to clear some mental space I would love to talk to you in person But I understand why that can't be I'll leave you alone for good, I promise If you answer this one question for me I just wonder Do you ever Think of me any more Do you? First off, let me say congratulations Heard that you just had a baby girl If she looks anything like her mother She's the prettiest thing in the world Swear that I'm not tryin' to start no trouble Tell your fiancé he can relax I'll leave you alone for good, I promise There's a question I just got to ask I just wonder Do you ever Think of me anymore Do you? I know what we have is dead and gone Too many times I made you cry And I don't mean to interrupt your life I just wonder, do I ever cross your mind? I just wonder Do you ever Think of me anymore Do you? (Do you, do you, do you?) I just wonder Do you ever Think of me anymore Do you? (Do you, do you?) I just wonder Do you ever Think of me anymore Do you? (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
