An old friend of ours told me
That you came back home last week
And I’m ashamed to say
I’ve been avoiding all the places
That I think you’d be
But in a town this small I know
That sooner or later
We’re gonna have to speak
And I’ve been thinking so hard about what I’m gonna say
When you ask me what I’m doing these days
Cuz these days I’m barely getting by
These days all I wanna do is cry
When these days are nothing
Like the days when it was you and I
And every night I put your picture away
Just to take it back out when I wake
Yeah, it’s pretty safe to say
Missing you is all I do these days
Sometimes that’s just how love goes
Still I guess I was holding out hope
That we would last and we
Would never see the end of
The love story we wrote
But pages got lost and
Chapters got skipped
Now I’m finishing it all alone
And I’ve been thinking so hard about that empty page
Where you ask me what I’m doing these days
Cuz these days I’m barely getting by
These days all I wanna do is cry
When these days are nothing
Like the days when it was you and I
And every night I put your picture away
Just to take it back out when I wake
Yeah, it’s pretty safe to say
Missing you is all I do these days
And it goes without saying
That it’s been so hard
Being here with all our memories
While you’ve been far away
But a small part of me is pretending
That maybe you’re back because
You want to say
That these days you’re barely getting by
These days all you wanna do is cry
When these days are nothing
Like the days when it was you and I
And every night you put my picture away
Just to take it back out when you wake
And maybe, just maybe
Missing me is all you do these days
