You’re a long way from home
And you’re playing in this bar
Free beer and dinner and gas money for the car
And when nobody’s listening you’re playing to the stars
And for the girl who doesn’t miss you anymore.
Bare as a forest
When the trees lose half their leaves
Exposed as a magician with nothing up his sleeve
And when no one is listening you take a short reprieve
Here’s to the girl who doesn’t miss you anymore
A round for the girl who doesn’t miss you anymore
Maybe she thinks about you a little bit
Sometimes you pray
As you kneel before the alter of shot glasses
That blur another day
It takes all kinds of people
To live upon this planet
Some are sharp as arrows some attract like magnets
And when no one is listening, you try hard to imagine
The girl who doesn’t miss you anymore
There’s nothing good about it
Too sorrowful to sing
It’d be like bottling cheap wine to try and write a thing
And though you’ve taken pen to paper
When no one is listening
For the girl who doesn’t miss you anymore
For the girl who doesn’t miss you anymore
You miss the girl who doesn’t miss you anymore
