I don't always miss you when you're gone
and I don't think about you all the time
nobody to tell me what to do
and usually that nobody is you
I don't always miss you when you're gone
And I don't think about the time we spent
the things we did or the places that we went
and I don't sit 'round with a distant look
scribbling your name in little hearts in my notebook
I don't always miss you when you're gone
I know what love looks like from TV
from the books I've read and the movies that I've seen and isn't it just everybody's dream
to be in love and never turn eighteen
I don't always miss you when you're gone
