Just because I ask a friend about her   Just because I spoke her name somewhere   Just because I rang her number by mistake today   She thinks I still care      Just because I haunt the same old places   Where the memory of her lingers everywhere   Just because I'm not the happy guy I used to be   She thinks I still care      But if she's happy thinkin' I still need her   Then let that silly notion bring her cheer   But how could she ever be so foolish   Oh, where would she get such an idea      Just because I ask a friend about her   And just because I spoke her name somewhere   Just because I saw her then went all to pieces   She thinks I still care      She thinks I still care
