Driving over the bridge and old thoughts come back to me
It has been a long time since they entered my head
I figured they were gone and would never surface again

But I was wrong they are always with me
Those thoughts of would I be missed by anyone
How long before someone says have you seen her

Maybe I would be missed if the bills are not paid
If the laundry was not done
If there was no food in the house

Maybe I would be missed if the phone was not answered
The door bell wasn't answered
The mail was not delivered

Maybe I would be missed if the gifts weren't bought
The decorations are not put up
The cards not sent out

Driving over the bridge and looking down at the icy water makes me think
Would anyone miss me?
