Lyrics
Did you ever notice me?

Standing over there

Or was I just a dummy?

Thinking you would care

It never occurred to me

That I never occur to you

You’re all I think about

Yet I still have doubt

That in the meantime

I will cross your mind

I spent all this time on you

thinking you would change

Guess I should find someone new

Though it may feel strange

It never occurred to me

That I never occur to you

You’re all I think about

Yet I still have doubt

That in the meantime

I will cross your mind

Can you just spare me a thought

or is that too much to ask

Thought you could love me, guess not

Guess I should stick to the facts

You’re all I think about

Yet I still have doubt

That in the meantime

I will cross your mind

You’re all I think about

Yet I still have doubt

That in the meantime

I will cross your mind

It never occurred to me

That I never occur to you
