Story Behind The Song
The song is a tongue in cheek story about a narcissistic guy who truly believes his ex is just pining away for him, when she has actually moved on and never thinks about him at all.
Song Description
The song has an 80's feel to it with a country vocal. It blends distorted guitars with B3 and clavinet to give it some funk, plus the obligatory cowbell.

Lyrics
THINK ABOUT ME
Patterson & Doyle
Copyright 2022
When the nights just keep getting longer
And good times are few and far between
When those looks to kill no longer pay the bills
That's the time you're going to think about me
When the only thing you're getting is jaded
And your name's fallen off the marquee
You get a smile on your face and warm in that place
At night when you think about me
We were so close to the promised land
It was right there for the taking
That's so long ago and so far behind
That the thought of you never crosses my mind
The shackles of regret are getting stronger
But I've got the skeleton key
What went on in the dark must've really hit the mark
Now all you do is think about me
Some losses we don't seem to get over
Guess you're never gonna truly be free
Don't let it drive you mad all that you could've had
Tonight when you think about me
Don't let it drive you mad all that you could've had
Tonight when you think about me
Think about me
Think about me
Oh do you think about me?
