Missing you is muscle memory

Familiar and so routinely

I take you with my coffee in the morning

And go to bed and hope you're dreaming of me

Took a wrong turn and ended up at your house

Heard from a friend that you're out getting drunk now

You're not the one that I used to know

But that's the version of you that I hold

What happens when I let you go? I don't know how to find your trace again

If you're not on my mind on day-to-day then does that mean that I lose you over again?

You're like second nature, and missing you is mechanical

Your pattern I can't break, your lesson I can't unlearn

Got too used to what I know

Grip tight to the hand I hold

Hold my breath, hope I don't choke

I'll remember cause you don't

If I forget us, then who won't?

Your scent still hangs on my clothes

In my muscles and bones

Missing you is all I've known now

I don't know how to kiss any other mouth

I'll stare at someone else wondering all the time

If I can find a hint of you in their eyes

They say missing someone comes and goes in waves

Well you could say that I've been drowning most days

I'll admit that your laugh I forgot the sound

I guess it's all one big distant memory now

I'm homesick for a house across a bridge that we've already burnt down (down)

I'm scared for the day I come to write something about somebody else somehow

You're like second nature, and missing you is mechanical

Your pattern I can't break, your lesson I can't unlearn

Got too used to what I know

Grip tight to the hand I hold

Hold my breath, hope I don't choke

I'll remember cause you don't

If I forget us, then who won't?

Your scent still hangs on my clothes

In my muscles and bones

Muscles and bones
