The Things That I Miss

Download mp3

How could you not understand this?
It seems so simple.
The things that I miss most,
Are the nights that we'd spend alone watching the road..

But all that has changed since you've pulled away.
The face is still there, but your smile's not the same-
As it was during the days when I fell in love.
I wish then I'd knew-

What you didn't say,
Between all the lines of words that I couldn't accept at the time.
The noise was so loud as cars drifted by,
And I had no doubt that you must be lying,
when you told me you'd hurt me..

Thrown back on my own.
I'll tend to these wounds from the safety of home.
I hide in my room while you scratch away everything.
It hardly seems real.

So maybe I'll wake-
Between all the lines of words that I couldn't accept at the time.
The noise was so loud as cars drifted by,
And I had no doubt that you must be lying,
when you told me you'd hurt me...
