Miss You
- ED SHEERAN Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Shock, horror, I'm down,
Lost, you're not around
There's a lump in my chest
That sends cold through my head, and
My mind shuts sound out
I'm on auto-pilot,
And my tongue's gone silent
Just switch it off and lay it down,
Lay it down next to me.

I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe when I made you mine, whoa-oh-oh-oh
I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe it was every time
That you said, you said, you said
That I miss you and I miss you

These words mean nothing to me
I'm just sitting on a fence of how it used to be
These three words are aching,
Constrict them- suffocating
My mind is racing
With the picture I'm painting
And my belly's sick to it's stomach
When I remember all the times he was with you when you laid it down
You lay down next to me.

I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe when I made you mine, whoa-oh-oh-oh
I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe it was every time
That you said, you said, you said
That I miss you
More than I let on
I kissed you
Far too long
I'll let go as soon as you do
See I know we're not through

I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe when I made you mine, whoa-oh-oh-oh
I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe it was every time
That you said, you said, you said
That I miss you, that I miss you, whoa-oh-oh-oh.

I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe it was every time




That you said, you said, you said
That I miss you.

Overall Meaning

The song 'Miss You' by Ed Sheeran describes the feelings of loss and longing for someone who is not around anymore. The first stanza describes the physical effects of missing somebody such as the lump in the chest and the inability to hear anything. The mention of the person being on auto-pilot emphasizes their detachment from reality due to missing the person. In the second stanza, Sheeran questions when he lost his mind, implying that it happened when he fell in love and made that person his. The chorus repeats the line "That I miss you" to emphasize the constant longing for that person.


The third stanza brings in feelings of jealousy as Sheeran recalls specific memories of this person being with somebody else, making his belly sick to its stomach. The reference to the past is in contrast to his current situation of missing the individual but not wanting to let go of them. The final line "I know we're not through" hints at the possibility of a future reconciliation. The outro repeats the final chorus with increased intensity, leaving the listener with a sense of unresolved emotions.

LYRICS

Shock, horror, I'm down,
Lost, you're not around
There's a lump in my chest
That sends cold through my head, and
My mind shuts sound out
I'm on auto-pilot,
And my tongue's gone silent
Just switch it off and lay it down,
Lay it down next to me.

I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe when I made you mine, whoa-oh-oh-oh
I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe it was every time
That you said, you said, you said
That I miss you and I miss you

These words mean nothing to me
I'm just sitting on a fence of how it used to be
These three words are aching,
Constrict them- suffocating
My mind is racing
With the picture I'm painting
And my belly's sick to it's stomach
When I remember all the times he was with you when you laid it down
You lay down next to me.

I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe when I made you mine, whoa-oh-oh-oh
I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe it was every time
That you said, you said, you said
That I miss you
More than I let on
I kissed you
Far too long
I'll let go as soon as you do
See I know we're not through

I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe when I made you mine, whoa-oh-oh-oh
I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe it was every time
That you said, you said, you said
That I miss you, that I miss you, whoa-oh-oh-oh.

I don't know when I lost my mind
Maybe it was every time
That you said, you said, you said
That I miss you.

Shock y horror, estoy mal
Perdido, no estás por aquí
Hay un bulto en mi pecho que
Me enfría la cabeza y

Mi mente no oye
Estoy en piloto automático
Y mi lengua se ha callado
Solo apaga la luz y acuéstate
Acuéstate
A mi lado

No sé cuándo perdí la cabeza
Tal vez cuando te hice mía
Ooh
No sé cuándo perdí la cabeza
Tal vez haya sido cada vez
Que dijiste, que dijiste, que dijiste
Que te extraño
Y te extraño

Estas palabras no significan nada para mí
Solo estoy sentado en un hueco de cómo solía ser
Estas tres palabras me duelen
Ven desnudando y sofocando

Mi mente está corriendo
Con el cuadro que estoy pintando
Me duele la barriga
Cuando recuerdo todo el tiempo
Que estaba contigo cuando me acosté
Te acuestas
A mi lado

No sé cuándo perdí la cabeza
Tal vez cuando te hice mía
Ooh
No sé cuándo perdí la cabeza
Tal vez haya sido cada vez
Que dijiste, que dijiste, que dijiste
Que te extraño más de lo que quería
Te besé, por mucho tiempo
Lo dejaré, tan pronto como lo hagas, lo sé
No hemos terminado

No sé cuándo perdí la cabeza
Tal vez cuando te hice mía
Ooh
No sé cuándo perdí la cabeza
Tal vez haya sido cada vez
Que dijiste, que dijiste, que dijiste
Que te extraño
Que te extraño

and I miss you
