I miss you

Verse 1 When I got the news, it knocked the air out of my chest All my racing thoughts just wouldn’t rest My legs went weak, the world went blurry at the seams I couldn’t breathe, I couldn’t see You were no longer here with me Pre-Chorus You were just here, now you’re a memory Still feels like you’re right next to me I reach for you instinctively But you’re not here to answer me Chorus I miss you, my heart’s so heavy Like a sinking ship in a dark, deep sea Pulling me down with every memory Of what you mean to me I reach for you, but you’re not there Just empty space and borrowed air You’re everywhere and nowhere too And God… I miss you Verse 2 There’s an empty space in everything I do Every part of me still shaped by you You held together pieces I can feel start to break Now every step I try to take Feels like too much weight to carry Pre-Chorus You were just here, now you’re a memory How is that all that’s left of you and me? I still reach out like you might stay But you’re already worlds away Chorus I miss you, my heart’s so heavy Like a sinking ship in a dark, deep sea Pulling me down with every memory Of what you mean to me I reach for you, but you’re not there Just empty space and borrowed air You’re everywhere and nowhere too And God… I miss you Bridge Now I gotta learn to live this life without you And I don’t know how I’m supposed to But I can’t give up, you wouldn’t want me to So I ask God for the strength to make it through Your words still echo in my head Telling me I’m stronger than this We talked about the end back then But I was never ready for this I always thought there’d still be time One more call, one more goodbye Now I’m standing here alone Not knowing how to move on I’m lost without you Final Chorus (soft → full → fade) I miss you, my heart’s so heavy Like a sinking ship in a dark, deep sea Pulling me down with every memory Of what you mean to me I reach for you, but you’re not there Just empty space and borrowed air You’re everywhere and nowhere too And God… I miss you I miss you, my heart’s so heavy Like a sinking ship in a dark, deep sea Pulling me down with every memory Of what you'll always mean to me... I reach for you, but you’re not there Just empty space and borrowed air You’re everywhere and nowhere too And God… I miss you (pull everything back… just voice and guitar) Outro (bare, almost spoken) You always loved the ocean… Said it made you feel free So if I ever stand where the water meets my feet And feel the tide pull back from me I’ll think of you And everything we’ve been through.. I still Love you
