"I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it."
- Audrey Hepburn.


VERSE 1
Sometimes I just sit there and wonder about
What we could have had if I didn’t freak out.
Sometimes I’d imagine what we’d still be
If it was you, who still wanted me.


—drums kick in—


VERSE 2
Sometimes I’d pretend I woke up with you
Lying right beside me, he never knew.
I would just lay there, never open my eyes.
Happy in my head, but I’m living a lie.

---->
We were young and we fought all the time,
So we both thought it wasn’t worth trying.

CHORUS
But do you ever remember holding my hand?
I remember the first time we ever danced.
Do you ever think back and miss loving me?
Or have all the fights blocked your memory?

Do you ever wish that we never broke up?
I know that I couldn’t wish it enough.
Do you ever think about if I’ve thought of you?
Well, the answer is yes, and I still do.

VERSE 3
Sometimes it’s easy to pretend he’s you.
I just close my eyes, that’s all I have to do.
When he kisses my face, when he touches me there,
I just go numb everywhere.

VERSE 4
I used to sabotage every relationship,
Comparing to you whoever kissed my lips.
But I found it’s easier than being alone
If I always had someone to take me home.
Please take me home.

---->

We were young and we fought all the time,
But my biggest regret is that I didn’t try.

CHORUS
Do you ever remember holding my hand?
I remember the first time we ever danced.
Do you ever think back and miss loving me?
Or have all the fights blocked your memory?

Do you ever wish that we never broke up?
I know that I couldn’t wish it enough.
Do you ever think about if I’ve thought of you?
Well, the answer is yes, and I still do.

BRIDGE 1
I’ll never stop thinking of you.
I know I have him, and I know you have her.
But I’ll never stop missing you.
I just wanted you to know. That’s all, it’s over.

BRIDGE 2 (really slow)
Do you ever remember
How we used to be?
Do you ever remember
Holding me?

Do you ever think back
to days long ago?
Do you ever remember
Loving me so?

CHORUS (back to normal pace)
Do you ever remember holding my hand?
I remember the first time we ever danced.
Do you ever think back and miss loving me?
Or have all the fights blocked your memory?

Do you ever wish that we never broke up?
I know that I couldn’t wish it enough.
Do you ever think about if I’ve thought of you?
Well, the answer is yes, and I still do.

I still do, and I’ll never stop
Loving you.

END
Sometimes I just sit there and wonder about
What we could have had if I didn’t freak out.
Sometimes I’d imagine what we’d still be
If it was you, who still wanted me.

The author's comments:
** The verses kind of sound like Katy Perry ("The One That Got Away"). The choruses are much slower, almost Adele-like. And Bridge 1 sounds like an old-school Blink-182 song, lol. It's a wide variety, but it all goes together in the end.

** Idea of song reminds me of "Think of You" by Katy Perry.
