You left a safety pin
On my front seat
It caught the light and
I couldn't believe
That a piece of you followed me all the way here
You left your coat on my living room chair
I smiled at the thought of you all the way there
Wishing you had my arms keeping you warm
So if you ever forget to leave
Then ooh, you'll have all of me
Lose track of the time and don't let the clock take you from me
Oh, I wish you would forget to leave and choose to love me
I left a scarf hanging next to your door
You keep it safe somewhere deep in your drawer
Hoping I don't catch a cold 'fore I see you again
I left a note in your book on the floor
I said that I love you and I leave a piece of me
With you each time I walk out the door
So if you ever forget to leave
Then ooh, you'll have all of me
Lose track of the time and don't let the clock take you from me
Oh, I wish you would forget to leave and choose to love me
I'll keep the little things you leave behind
So if I ever think that I'm losing my mind
And 300 miles are a hard road to climb
I'll come back safe to your arms
That little gold pin hits the light like your eyes
And your coat smells like you when you hold me at night
And there's a page missing from the day that I
Wrote you a note to keep close
I miss you more than you know
So if you ever forget to leave
Then ooh, you'll have all of me
These fragments of us could be whole if we planted our feet
And if you ever stay for a spell
Then ooh, forget everything else
We could be whole if you stay and choose to love me
And if you ever forget to leave
Then ooh, you'll have all of me
Lose track of the time and don't let the clock take you from me
Oh, I wish you would forget to leave and choose to love me
