[Verse 1]
When you lay your head down on the pillow
Do you think of me from time to time?
In the unconscious stream of your secret daydreams
Am I ever on your mind?
On a late Wednesday night after working
When you're driving alone in the rain
Do you think about calling me up and then
Calling me, "Baby"?

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I spend all my time just trying
To forget you

[Chorus]
Outta sight, outta mind
That's the way it works sometimes
Bet you're still doing fine
But I'm not the reason
So why do I still think about you
Like there's something left to lose?
Lеtting go of this illusion
Is harder than letting go of you

[Verse 2]
Will you tell your friеnds this song's about you
When you hear it a few months from now?
Will the words in your head leave the heart in your chest
Wanting more?
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I spend all my time just trying
Not to want you

[Chorus]
Outta sight, outta mind
That's the way it works sometimes
Bet you're still doing fine
But I'm not the reason
So why do I still think about you
Like there's something left to lose?
Letting go of this illusion
Is harder than letting go of you

[Bridge]
When you lay your head down on the pillow
Do you think of me from time to time?

[Chorus]
Outta sight, outta mind
That's the way it works sometimes
Bet you're still doing fine
But I'm not the reason
So why do I still think about you
Like there's something left to lose?
Letting go of this illusion
Is harder than letting go of you
