Chorus;
Oh how can I miss you, if you won't go away?
I don't mean to diss you,
but this is hard to say.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder...
can't we start today?
But how can I miss you, if you won't go away?

You keep askin me if I'm missing you sweetheart.
Well don't you have to go away
before the missing starts?
Absence make the heart grow fonder,
fonder every day.
But how can I miss you
if you won't go away?

Chorus

I don't mean to hurt your feelings

or to hurt your pride.
I know what it feels like girl,
to be hurt inside.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder
but how would I know?
I could grow so fond if you'd only wanna go?

Chorus

If you love something you should set it free.
Now would be a good time to start
oh won't you start with me.
Oh absence makes the heart grow fonder...
aint that what they say?
But how can I miss you if you won't go away?

Chorus

Oh how can I miss you...I don't want to diss you...
but how can I miss you if you won't go away?
