Maybe He'll Notice Her Now

She wrote, "I feel just like that paintin' 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" And she drove herself out of 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 When he came home late that evenin' He called her name down the hall He saw the outline of the paintin' That used to hang there on the wall And 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 (Notice her now) Maybe he'll open his eyes (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
