Last Thing on Your Mind

It’s not the brightest thing to do.
Ignore the world while I obsess about you.
I know that it’s insane, but I do it anyway
with the hope against all hope that things are going to change.
This is the love that lasts forever –
the kind that you know from first sight.
The kind that keeps you up at night. The kind that burns you up inside,
and while the midnight candle burns you wonder why it’s not returned.

Can someone tell me
why life is so unkind
– that you’re all I ever think about
and I’m the last thing on your mind.

So I’ll put myself together.
You can break me down.
Maybe I should stop relying on the thought you’ll stop denying
there’s a chance that you might find me growing on you now.
Can someone tell me...
Mind the answers, for one day you might find
that I’m all you ever think about, and you’re the last thing on my mind.
