It's not as simple as a bandaid
You can just rip off with one pull
It's more like running with your hands tied
Eventually you're gonna fall
It's hurting layer after layer
In the most unexpected ways
Like when I'm smiling in the sunshine
Then your favorite song starts to play
I see you in everything I do, you're in every word I hear, in all the clothes I wear
I want to look the other way, but then someone says your name—you're still here
[Chorus:]
I miss you
I miss you
It's like there's postcards with your picture
Coming through the mail each day
At every gas station and stoplight
I swear I see your car pull away
A guy with a baseball hat on
He turns around
I can't help but to feel disappointed
I thought it was you now
I taste you in everything I eat, I see you walk on every street, you're in every newspaper I read
And when I look up at the sky, all I can think of is your eyes—they were the same color blue
[Chorus:]
I miss you
I miss you
Today I heard the funniest joke and I laughed
But I didn't hear you laughing back
It didn't sounds the same
And tonight I couldn't fall asleep so I turned on late-night tv
And your favorite movie played back
Played back, played back
[Chorus:]
I miss you
I miss you
