Yeah, yeah, yeah
One two, one two
One two three four

Hey, my friend
How have you been?
You have been gone for so long
You look good, I knew you would
I've thought about you often

When you were gone, oh, did you think of me?
When you were gone, did you think I would be
Waitin' for you, the way that I have been?
When you were gone, were you wondering?
How was I doing?
Was I fine?
Did you know you was always on my mind?
When you were gone, when you were gone
Did you think of me?
Me, ah

Now you're back
Puttin' on this act
That I was always in your heart
(Oh) wish I didn't need ya (wish I)
I wish I could believe ya (wish I)
I wish I didn't want to know (wish)

When you were gone, oh, did you think of me?
When you were gone, did you think I would be
Waitin' for you, the way that I have been?
When you were gone, were you wondering?
How was I doing?
Was I fine?
Did you know you was always on my mind?
When you were gone, when you were gone
Did you think of

I was better then
Better when I was without you in my life
Now it's colder than
Colder than the frozen picture you left behind, in my mind
I was fine, but now you're here and I'm not doin' so well (well)

When you were gone, oh, did you think of me?
When you were gone, did you think I would be
Waitin' for you, the way that I have been?
When you were gone, were you wondering?
How was I doing?
Was I fine?
Did you now you was always on my mind?
When you were gone, when you were gone
Did you think of me? (Oh)
Me (oh)

Did you think of me? (Did you think of me?)
Did you think of me? (Did you think of me?)
When you were gone (think of me?)
(Wish you) when you were gone (did you, did you think of me?)
(Wish you) when you were gone (did you think of me?)
(Wish you) when you were gone (did you think of me?)
(Wish you)
