How Often Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I bet I know your day
I bet you left for work about ten minutes late
You didn't even wear the dress I bought
Didn't eat at our favorite spot
Baby, you found a new place, mmm
So I'm sitting here at the same time
Picking up the pieces you left behind
Oh, now God knows that I miss your face
Can't help but wonder what it takes
Baby, to get back in your life

[Chorus]
Girl, how often do you think of me?
How often do I enter your mind, girl?
Is there ever a time?
How often do you cry for me?
I cry for you like all the time
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
Your mind, your mind
Your mind, your mind

[Verse 2]
Girl, I thought what we had was so strong
That's why it lasted so long, yeah, yeah
You couldn't find yourself a better man
That's why I just don't understand it
Why you're not here
[Chorus]
Girl, how often do you think of me?
How often do I enter your mind, girl?
Is there ever a time?
How often do you cry for me?
I cry for you like all the time
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind

[Bridge]
I've got to get back to you
Reasons are so clear
I know that I can't live without you
Now that you're not here
I'm saving everything I got
I'm holding on to you
We were wrong to let things go
I need to know if you still love me

[Chorus]
How often do you think of me?
How often do I enter your mind, girl?
(I wanna know) Is there ever a time?
How often do you cry for me?
I cry for you like all the time (Like all the time)
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
How often do you think of me?
How often do I enter your mind, girl?
Is there ever a time?
How often do you cry for me?
I cry for you like all the time (Like all the time)
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
How often do you think of me?
How often do I enter your mind, girl?
(Oh baby girl) Is there ever a time?
How often do you cry for me?
I cry for you like all the time

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
