Think Of Me

Think of me, think of me fondly, after we say “Goodbye”
I’ll think of you, think of you fondly, I don’t want to say “Goodbye”
You say you don’t want to stay in touch
But maybe you’ll miss me too much
I believe in action, I’m busy
But I like a distraction, whose fizzy
When I see you, I lose myself, lose my self control
You’ve got a hold, got a hold, got a hold on my soul
In my life, so much matters
But you, I love to flatter
You sometimes say its inappropriate, but I need to have dreams
Are you being manipulated, by horrible people’s schemes?
Conspiracies are complicated, more so than it seems
But when they all evaporate, life will have new themes
I'll say: “Whatever happened to all the conspiracies?
“No more conspiracies any more!
“No more conspiracies any more!”
By falling for each other now, we may seem like fools
But when the conspiracies go, we can rewrite the rules
Contact me, contact me fondly, when the world is free
I’ll think of you, think of you fondly, for you I’ll want to see
When I see you now, I can forget to play my role
You take myself, take my self control
I, I take part in the struggles against the right
I, I’ve got the willpower to pause the fight
I need a more ordinary life
But I’m not going to rush to get a wife
I’m giving good people direction
And for you, I have affection
So think of me, think of me fondly, after we say “Goodbye”
I’ll think of you, think of you fondly, and hope we’ll again say
“Hi!”
’Cos I love you, I love you dearly, and will always wonder why
You have not got in touch
When I think you’ll miss me so much
I have recorded the song as a musical poem, in MP3 format.
