Come Around

Have you seen the way she looks at you,

That spark in her eyes?

Have you seen the way she follows you,

The spring in her step?

Have you seen the way she brightens up,

Whenever you are near?

No you haven’t

‘Cause you’re not there to see her

But I’ve been watching her

And I can say

She misses you dearly

Have you seen the way she smiles

At the mere thought of the past?

Have you seen the way she laughs,

The way her nose wrinkles up?

Do you know how much she misses you?

Can you even begin to know?

No you don’t

Or maybe you do

But she’s missing you

Like a writer misses the clack of keys

Like a musician misses music

Like a flower misses sun

Please say you miss her too

Like she misses you

Because if you don’t

I do, and maybe if you don’t

I’ll take her from you

But she’s yours, and always has been

You’ll never lose, I’ll never win

No, you’ve got her caught in your web

Even if you don’t know it

So tell me, do you miss her like she misses you

Do your hearts throb in tune?

Do you spend hours thinking of her voice

Thinking back upon those days of joy?

Please say you do, ‘cause I can’t stand the way she sighs

Whisk her away, never let her hand touch my life

Has she burned a hole so deep

You can’t forget it, even while you sleep

If so, let me know

So I can tell her to hurry home

She may be awhile, I dread

But until then I’ll watch her for you

And when she’s gone I’ll mourn

But I’ll be happy because she is

So please ask her to hurry back

Because she needs to hear it from you

I’ll gladly hand her over

Though I don’t want to let her go

She belongs to you

And if you belong to her

I know I can let her go

But until she knows you miss her too

I can’t stop hating you

For stealing her from me

Even though you knew her first

So go, whisk her away

In a night or in a day

As long as she knows you’ll wait

I’m sure she’ll always come back around

Oh, she’ll come around for you

For you alone

If you miss her,

If you don’t

She’ll come around

She’s not giving up

She’ll come around again

And in the end

You’ll see

You miss her too
