V6

[Intro – Gentle fingerpicked acoustic guitar] [Verse 1] There's a coffee cup beside the sink And a thousand things I shouldn't think I still turn around to tell you things Like you're standing there with me And I drive the roads we used to know Past the little house, the corner store It's funny how the world moves on When you're still somewhere before [Pre-Chorus] And I know we weren't perfect We were young and we were scared But I'd give a thousand sunsets Just to find you standing there [Chorus] I miss you I miss me I miss the part that was we I miss the nights I held your hand And even when the trouble began I miss us I miss trust I miss the tired nights and endless fights When I thought that love was enough Oh, I miss us [Verse 2] Do you remember dancing in the hall? No music playing, just our shadows on the wall You wore my sweater when the winter came And I still smile when I hear your name We built a world with crooked little walls And watched the pictures slowly start to fall But if you asked me if I'd do it all again I'd say yes, even knowing how it ends [Pre-Chorus] And I don't blame the distance Or the words we couldn't say Some flowers only bloom a while But I'm glad they bloomed that way [Chorus] I miss you I miss me I miss the part that was we I miss the nights I held your hand And even when the trouble began I miss us I miss trust I miss the tired nights and endless fights When I thought that love was enough Oh, I miss us [Bridge – Soft, almost whispered] And maybe somewhere down the line I'll learn to love a different life I'll find the boy I used to be And let the morning back inside of me But if our story's really through There's something I should say to you For every tear and every scar I'm glad I got to know your heart [Final Chorus – Warm, emotional, gently rising] I miss you I miss me I miss the part that was we I miss the nights I held your hand And even when the trouble began I miss us I miss trust And though forever wasn't long enough For a little while, we had love I miss you I miss me And all the things we used to be And though I know we're not the same I'd love you through it all again I miss us I miss us [Outro – Return to delicate fingerpicking] And if the years turn us to dust I'll still be glad there once was us I miss you... I miss me... I miss us...
