You'Re Gonna Think of Me

Deny it all you want to
Pretend you're happy being free
But when your mind begins to wander
You're gonna think of me
Oh you may find another
Thinner, pretty face
But she'll never measure up to me
I could never be replaced
I'll consume your every thought
I'll run within your veins
Your heart will stop
Be short of breath
When you hear my name
Your mouth and skin will ache for me
In the darkness there alone
You'll think of how I teased your lips
Let my fingers roam
You'll miss the way I smiled at you
Pushed the tendrils from your face
My eyes lit up when I looked at you
Those things you can't erase 
But I wont beg to hold you here
Your decision is your own
Explore some other options
Need some time alone
So go then I release you
Unchained you, set you free
But when you miss what you once had
You're gonna think of me.
