I THINK YOU’D LIKE THIS
AND, I LIKE YOU
SO I’D THOUGHT I’D GIVE IT TO YOU
JUST A LITTLE SOMETHING
THAT MADE ME THINK OF YOU
AND MAYBE WHEN YOU SEE THIS
YOU’D THINK OF ME, A FRIEND, WHO
CARES FOR YOU AND THEN YOU’D BE
BE THINKING OF ME, TOO.

I THOUGHT OF YOU TODAY, AND THAT
PICTURE YOU SENT MY WAY,
AND WONDERED HOW YOU’VE BEEN LATELY,
FOR EVERY TIME I SEE IT, I SEE YOU,
AND WISH YOU WERE RIGHT HERE,
WONDERING ABOUT ME, TOO
BECAUSE THERE’S NOT MANY WHO SEE ME
THE WAY YOU DO, AND
I’M STARTING TO SEE THINGS
THE WAY YOU DO, AND MISSING THE WAY
YOU’D SEE ME, TOO.

IS THAT SO? WELL, I WONDER IF WE WERE
THINKING THE SAME WAY,
AT THE SAME TIME, ON THE SAME DAY
FOR HERE I AM MISSING YOU, AND WONDERING
WHEN YOU’LL MISS ME, TOO,
THE WAY MY HEART LONGS FOR YOU
AND THE FRIENDSHIP WE ONCE KNEW,
IS IT GNAWING AT YOU, TOO?

IT’S EVERY DAY, THE SAME WAY
WHEN I LOOK AT THE WAY YOU SEE ME,
I WONDER WHY IT TOOK ME SO LONG,
TO SEE YOU, TOO, TO FIND MY WAY BACK TO YOU,
SO, I WISH TO BE WITH YOU, FOR MY THOUGHTS
ARE FILLED OF ONLY YOU, AND MY EYES
WAIT FOR THE DAY, I’D SOON SEE YOU
AND THEN, MY HANDS PICK UP THE LAST
PHOTO YOU SENT, AND I SEE A WHOLE NEW YOU
AND WONDER IF YOU LOVE ME TOO,
THE WAY, I TRULY DO LOVE YOU.
