Annabelle Fries
Do you think about me?

I wonder if you think about me like I think about you
We haven’t seen each other in years
But I still catch myself thinking about you sometimes
I wonder if you even remember me

I don’t think it’s a crush anymore
It’s been enough years that doesn’t sound right anymore
But I still think about you
I wonder if you think about me like I think about you
I don’t really miss you
Yet I wonder how you are
What you are doing in life

Will our paths ever cross again?
Would we talk?
Would I blush like I was a teenager again?
I know I would keep thinking about you
I wonder if you would think about me like I think about you

I know it’s time to move on.
But then again, there isn’t anything to move on from
Just thoughts and memories of the past
I think about them and you more than I should
I can’t help but wonder if you think about me like I think about you
