Things That I Miss

I miss your teeth and your smile
I haven’t seen them in a while
Remember when you stole that
Peace necklace from me at the store?
I miss your mom
And your dad
I miss your roommate and your cats
I’ve never had a kind of love like that before

And when you kissed my head
And left me in your bed to go to work
I remember feeling like
I could live right here for years
I had about fifty cents I couldn’t pay your rent
But I loved you and that’s all it meant to me
And when you left I was in tears

But I have a lover and I have a best friend
I’m doing well and I hope you listen to this
You’ll always be my first kiss
But I have a life now and I’ve learned my lesson
I’m growing up and doing big things for me
You’ll always be on my list
Of all the good things that I miss
You’re all the good things that I miss

I miss your hair, your nose
I miss the smell of your clothes
Remember when you took me to Niagara falls
And we took photos all night long?
I can’t believe I’m the one you chose
I really miss being at your shoes
You know, we never got to perform our song

And when you looked me in the eyes I frozen
It took me by surprise I suppose
That the guilt will eat me alive some day
Being so open you left me so closed
And you saw me at one of my all time lows
And you don’t have to apologize for the hole you left in me

‘Cause I have a lover and I have a best friend
I’m doing well and I hope you listen to this
You’ll always be my first kiss
But I have a life now and I’ve learned my lesson
I’m growing up and doing big things for me
You’ll always be on my list
Of all the good things that I miss
You’re all the good things that I miss
