lyrics
I Miss You
I promised you I’d clean the kitchen
when you cooked my favorite meals
I promised you I’d pay more attention
to your old cat and how he feels
And I stopped trying to scare you when you those late-late shows
chorus:
I miss you
There’s not a day that I don’t think about you
I miss you
My favorite memories are Sundays
Sleeping late and making love
I’d punch the channels
and you’d read the paper
All about the trouble the stars are in
And the smell of fresh made coffee
And your fingers upon my skin
chorus:
bridge:
Some people talk about how love can conquer all
But they don’t tell you what to do when Death comes to call
I locked the doors and I latched the windows
I put the boxes in the cars
There on the sidewalk we carved our initials
Who’d have thought kids could come this far
And as the past fades in the rearview mirror
Your old cat and me drive away
chorus:
