I betcha you left for work 'bout 10 minutes late You didnt even wear the dress i bought Didnt eat at our favorite spot Baby, you found a new place So i'm sittin here at the same time Pickin' up the pieces you left behind Oh, now god knows that i miss your face Cant help it wonder what it takes To get back in your life -chorus- Girl, how often do you think of me How often do i enter your mind girl Is there ever a time How often do you cry for me I cry for you like all the time And i wonder if i ever cross your mind Your mind, your mind Your mind, your mind... Girl i thought what we had was so strong That's why it lasted so long You couldnt find yourself a better man That's why i just dont understand it Why you're not here -chorus- Girl, how often do you think of me How often do i enter your mind girl Is there ever a time How often do you cry for me I cry for you like all the time And i wonder if i ever cross your mind I've got to get back to you Reasons are so clear I know that i cant live without you Now that you're not here I'm saving everythin i got I'm holdin on to you We were wrong to let things go I need to know if you still love me -chorus- How often do you think of me How often do i enter your mind girl Is there ever a time How often do you cry for me I cry for you like all the time And i wonder if i ever cross your mind -repeat chorus-
