Week 12 - Missing You (230319)

from Song A Week, Vol. 8 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

Were you hoping that it hurt
Did you mean to break my heart
When you dumped it in the dirt
Underneath these city stars

Did you have your fingers crossed
Hope to bring me to my knees
Really got your point across
Now here's a couple straight from me

You can't break what's already broken
Or make me jealous just like that
I will not cry and I ain't hopin'
That I'll somehow win you back

If you tried you couldn't be more wrong
Here's the honest truth
This is not a love song
And I'm not missing you

I never liked that sundress
Made your legs look short and fat
In fact I wish you'd never undressed
Now what'you think of that

Maybe I'm honest maybe lyin'
Up my sleeve may be an ace
But it's a fact I'm sick of tryin'
To put a smile upon your face
