[Intro] [acoustic guitar strumming with bass-note emphasis] [Verse 1] [breathy male vocals] If I was a singing bird I'd spend the whole day calling out your name [Verse 2] And if I was a firefly I'd shine all night so you could find your way home [Verse 3] And if I was a wild horse I'd run all day till I found where you are [Verse 4] Now I wish I was a butterfly I'd spread my wings and hurricane you here [Chorus] [vocal intensity increases, rhythmic strumming continues] I'm just trying to say in my own way I'm just trying to say in my own way I miss you I miss you I miss you [Verse 5] [vocals return to breathy tone] Singing bird up in the trees Reminding me that hopes and dreams go on [Verse 6] Cricket chorus in the grass Reminds me that it's time to rest at last [Verse 7] River running slowly on I'm sitting singing out your songs [Verse 8] The sky fades now with colored clouds The fire in my heart cannot burn out It'll never burn out [Chorus] [vocal volume increases] I'm just trying to say I'm just trying to say in my own way I miss you I miss you I miss you [Outro] [vocal intensity peaks, heavy strumming] I'm just trying to say In my own way I'm just trying to say In my own way [vocals soften] I miss you I miss you I miss you so, so much I miss you I miss you I miss you, miss you so
