I Only Miss Him When I Think of Him by Barbara Lewis Lyrics

I'll only miss him when I think of him
And I'll think of him all the time

Likely I'll spend my days
Hearing his turn of phrase
Things I found hard to praise
Right now would seem sublime

Oh, The truth is I'll only miss him
When some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still his laugh

My heart hears maybe in time, I guess
The longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes
When it disappears, I'll bet I'll forget him completely
In about a hundred years

I'll bet I'll forget him completely
In about a hundred years
