I Miss You

By the time you hear this
I'm sure that I'll be better
And by the time you hear this
I'm sure that I would never
Say what I'm about to
Since I'm not around you
I guess that I'll speak my mind
But darlin', know I can't lie
Don't wanna say I miss you, but I do
Don't wanna say I miss you, but it's true
'Cause, God, it's been so long
And I know you moved on
Don't wanna say I miss you, but I do
Don't wanna say I miss you, but it's true
'Cause, God, it's been too long
And I know you're long gone
By the time you hear this
I'm sure I'll find a new love
Scarlet lips, white sundress
Just like the one that you wore
When we met in springtime
And your hazel-green eyes were telling me, "I'm all yours"
And I know we ran our course, so
Don't wanna say I miss you, but I do
Don't wanna say I miss you, but it's true
'Cause, God, it's been so long
And I know you moved on
Don't wanna say I miss you, but I do
Don't wanna say I miss you, but it's true
'Cause, God, it's been too long
And I know you're long gone
And the heart wants what the heart wants
But the oldest wounds are the heart wounds
And I promise I'll be alright
But a boy gets lonely sometimes
And I could fight
But what's the use?
Don't wanna say I miss you, but I do
Don't wanna say I miss you, but it's true
'Cause, God, it's been so long
And I know you moved on
Don't wanna say I miss you, but I do
Don't wanna say I miss you, but it's true
'Cause, God, it's been too long
And I know you're long gone
