Miss You

I look around, life's in the air
It's flying by and going nowhere
I promised that I'd be okay, but I miss you
A different town is over there
I think of you and say a prayer
And I'll be back, and I'll be okay, I just miss you

Oh, I tell you a story of when I hit the ground
Mama always told me we would make it out
Now I'm on the runway of a one way
Hoping someday that home would come back around
Outside in a strange land, I don't speak the language
And my mind is racing, I can't close my eyes
I think I'll be okay and better in the A.M., but until that time

I look around, life's in the air
It's flying by and going nowhere
I promised that I'd be okay, but I miss you
A different town is over there
I think of you and say a prayer
And I'll be back, and I'll be okay, I just miss you
And I know it's cliché to say when I'm on my way
And I left today, and I'm out of place
But I'll be okay, I just miss you

Ran into the ocean, looking for a sign
Found it in a photo of when you were mine
We were just some black sheet in the back seat
Bumping backstreet kids who transcend to time
Stealing every memory moving through my body
And my baby calling, better hit the lights
Know I'll be okay and better in the A.M., but until that time

I look around, life's in the air
It's flying by and going nowhere
I promised that I'd be okay, but I miss you
A different town is over there
I think of you and say a prayer
And I'll be back, and I'll be okay, I just miss you
And I know it's cliché to say when I'm on my way
And I left today, and I'm out of place
But I'll be okay, I just miss you
