"I'll Miss You" lyrics

"I'll Miss You"

I'll miss you most this time of year
I'll miss you when you're everywhere
In silence amplified by snow
In autumn on the shine
When spring appears so suddenly
It caught me by surprise
When walking home through moonless nights
In February skies

And it isn't like I was living someone else's life
And these dreams aren't mine, they're someone else's suffering
When I get so full of wonder
I can make light out of thunder
But I didn't know where you were
I didn't know where you were

Lately I've been given to
Wondering what it is you do
The moon a crumpled paper bag
The sun a rusted can
I trip up on familiar love
I stumble on a casual touch
I look away to not intrude
I must not stare, I know it's rude

And it isn't like I don't feel you in everything
But these dreams aren't mine, they're someone else's suffering
Honey, I'm full of wonder
How sudden the light turns to thunder
Honey, you push me under
I know you don't mean to but you
You don't know where you are
You don't know where you are
You cannot reach your star

I'll miss you most this time of year
I'll miss you when you're everywhere
I'll miss you when you're out my bed
When you're still fucking with my head
If time was ever mine to give
If time was ever mine to lose
If time was somehow mine to waste
I'd spend it all on you

Well couldn't it have worked out our way
I thought it would work out someday
Honey, I'll always love you
I'd move the stars just to find you
But I can't live in the dark
But I can't live in the dark
So I'm returning to my heart
I'm returning to my heart
I'm returning to my heart
I'm returning to my heart
