Miss You The Most
David Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Said I`d never sing a love song.
Here I am.
Said love couldn`t hit me so strong.
Here i stand.

Guess it`s time to face the music,
take it like a man.
Said I wasn`t gonna sell out.

But now I don`t give a damn.

chourse:
'Cos everything i ever had fell apart.
Listen to me sing, it`s coming from the heart.
Of all the things I`ve had, and all the things
I`ve lost, I miss you the most.

Said I`d never play my last card.
Now I have.
Said you`d never see me falling so hard.
Now you have.

Said I`d never give my heart up.
But that`s what makes a man.
Said I wasn`t gonna sell out now,
but who gives a damn?

chourse

And it`s not a show.
No, this is the real me talking.
I wan`t you to know
that i miss you so.

Chourse

Said I`d never sing a love song.
Here I am.
Said love couldn`t hit me so strong.
Here I stand.

Said I`d never sing a love song...
now I have.
