Note: this album (and obviously song) are by Ben Folds as a

solo artist, not Ben Folds Five. The correction form doesn't allow

you to change the artist, so i put it here.*



I thought I'd write

I'd thought I'd let you know.

In the year since you've been gone

I've finally let you go

And I hope you find some time to drop a note

But if you won't

Then you won't

And I will consider you gone.



I know that you went straight to someone else

While I worked through all this shit here by myself.

And I think that you should spend some time alone

But if you won't

Then you won't

Then I will

Then I will consider you gone.



I'll wake up

in the night

all alone, and that's all right

the chemicals are wearin' off

just as you're gone



The days go on, the lights go off and on

And nothing really matters when you're gone

If you think that you feel nothing at all

If you don't

Then you don't

If you won't

If you won't

Then I will...then I will...then I will

Consider you gone
