I Miss Who I Was [Verse 1] I found an old picture yesterday Of a little boy who used to laugh all day He had the whole world in his hands Never knew how fast it would change I used to run outside until the sun went down Never thought I’d miss those days somehow Now I sit here staring at the ceiling Trying to remember what I was feeling [Pre-Chorus] Where did I go? Where did I hide? I miss the person I left behind [Chorus] I miss who I was before the pain Before the tears, before the change Before I lost the ones I knew Before I forgot the things I used to do I miss the smile I used to wear The little boy who didn’t care If I could go back just one more time I’d tell him, “You’re gonna be alright” [Verse 2] I miss the friends I used to call The ones who knew me through it all We said forever like we meant it Now I wonder where the time went I look at pictures, I see their faces Wish I could go back to those places I wish I could remember every day Before the memories started fading away [Pre-Chorus] Where did I go? Where did I hide? I miss the person I left behind [Chorus] I miss who I was before the pain Before the tears, before the change Before I lost the ones I knew Before I forgot the things I used to do I miss the smile I used to wear The little boy who didn’t care If I could go back just one more time I’d tell him, “You’re gonna be alright” [Bridge] Maybe I’m still somewhere inside That little boy I left behind Maybe he still wants me to know He never really had to go And if I could hold him one more day I’d tell him he was loved that way You don’t have to be who you were To deserve a life that’s yours [Final Chorus] I miss who I was before the pain Before the tears, before the change Before I lost the ones I knew Before I forgot the things I used to do I miss the smile I used to wear The little boy who didn’t care I can’t go back, but I can try To find that boy still in my eyes [Outro] I miss who I was… But I’m still here…
