Miss You

I look around, life's in the air

It's flying by and going nowhere

I promised that I'd be okay

but I miss you

A different town is over there

I think of you and say a prayer

And I'll be back, and I'll be okay

I just miss you

I'll tell you a story when I hit the ground

Mama always told me we would make it out

Now I'm on the runway of a one-way

Hoping someday that home will come back around

Outside in a strange land

I don't speak the language

And my mind is racing

I can't close my eyes

I think I'll be okay and better in the AM

But until that time

I look around, life's in the air

It's flying by and going nowhere

I promised that I'd be okay

but I miss you

A different town is over there

I think of you and say a prayer

And I'll be back, and I'll be okay

I just miss you

And I know it's cliche to say

when I'm on my way

And I left today

And I'm out of place

But I'll be okay

I just miss you

I ran into the ocean looking for a sign

Found it in a photo of when you were mine

We were just some black sheep in the backseat

Bumping backstreet; kids who transcended time

Feeling every memory

Moving through my body

Hear my baby calling

Better hit the lights

I know I'll be okay and better in the AM

But until that time

I look around, life's in the air

It's flying by and going nowhere

I promised that I'd be okay

but I miss you

A different town is over there

I think of you and say a prayer

And I'll be back, and I'll be okay

I just miss you

And I know it's cliche to say

when I'm on my way

And I left today

And I'm out of place

But I'll be okay

I just miss you
