Chris Cagle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you hear our favorite song
Miss me baby
And when you start to sing along
Think about all the times that danced in light to it all night long
Oh, then miss me baby
You want me honey
You couldn't wait anymore
Left the keys in the door, took my hand, pulled my down on the kitchen floor
Yeah we were that crazy
Miss me baby
[Chorus]
Cause when he's holding you
Know that it's killing me
Let my memory be the reason, girl, that you can't sleep
And every time you feel his touch
I pray to God it's not enough
That I've touched your heart so deep, girl, you can't shake me
Cause I love you
Yes I need you
Miss me baby
Miss me baby
Til you can't take it no more
Miss me baby
Pack your bags and hit the door
I'm a man, I was wrong, forgive me, come back home, I'll be waiting
Right here waiting
Miss me baby
[Chorus]
And every time you feel his touch
I pray to God it's not enough
That I touched your heart so deep, girl, you can't shake me
Cause I love you
Yes I need you
Miss me baby
Every time you hear this song
Miss me baby
The song "Miss Me Baby" by Chris Cagle is a powerful ballad about regret, longing, and ultimately forgiveness. The song describes a man pleading with his former lover to miss him and to remember the good times they shared. The singer of the song tells his ex-girlfriend that he hopes their favorite song reminds her of the times they danced all night long, and he begs her to miss him whenever she hears it. He also admits that he wants her back and that he was wrong to leave her in the first place.
The chorus of the song is particularly powerful, as it describes the pain the man feels when he imagines his ex-girlfriend with another man. He hopes that his memory will be the reason she can't sleep, and he prays that the touch of another man won't be enough to make her forget about him. Despite the pain and hurt, the song is ultimately about forgiveness and the desire to make things right. The man begs his ex-girlfriend to come back to him, promising that he will be waiting for her with open arms.
