Hey (yeah)
Eh (what)
Hey, yeah, yeah
C'mon (c'mon)

Everyday I see you
With some girlfriend, yeah
You think I could care less
About it (care less about it)
I could keep it secret
Keep playing pretend, oh
But the way I feel you, I doubt it

No more waiting, hesitating
It's guaranteed

I'm gonna make you miss me
You're gonna want to kiss me

All of the time

Boy you want to get with me
You know you can't resist me
I'm gonna make you miss me

You're about to find out

Gonna let you see me
Turning it on

'Til you are mine
You've gotta know that something's up
I'll show you how I could love you
I'll turn it on (I'll turn it on)
Then I'll be gone (then I'll be gone)
But only 'til you come through
And feel the way that I do, oh

All of the time

You're gonna want to kiss me




I'm gonna make you miss me
