She wrote I feel just like that painting

Collectin' dust on the wall

And every day you walk right by me

And don't know I'm there at all

And I can't think of one single reason

Why I should be hangin around

She signed it,

"I hope that you'll miss me"

then she drove herself outta town

Maybe he'll notice her now

Maybe he'll open his eyes

Sometimes it takes somebody leavin

For a man to realize

Maybe he'll tell her

she's the only thing

That he can't live without

Now that she's gone

Maybe he'll notice her now

he came home late that evenin

He called her name down the hall

He saw the outline of the painting

That used to hang there on the wall

& in its place on the nail was a letter

He read it out loud to himself

Then the loneliness began to take over

And for once he knew just how she felt

Maybe he'll notice her now

Maybe he'll open his eyes

Sometimes it takes somebody leavin

For a man to realize

Maybe he'll tell her

she's the only thing

That he can't live without

Now that she's gone

Maybe he'll notice her now

He called her up

he said I have been such a fool

She said I will come back

and boy I still love you

Maybe he'll notice her now

Maybe he'll open his eyes

Sometimes it takes somebody leavin

For a man to realize

Maybe he'll tell her

she's the only thing

That he can't live without

Now that she's gone

Maybe he'll notice her now

I'm comin home

Maybe you'll notice me now
