miss you
Ed Sheeran Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Shock, horror, i'm down
Lost, your not around
There's a lump in my chest that
Sends cold through my head and
My mind shuts sound out
I'm on autopilot
And my tongues 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
Wooooohhh ohhhhh
I don't know when i lost my mind
Maybe it was every time
That you said, you said, you saaaaaid
That i miss you
That i miss you

These words mean nothing to me
I'm just in 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 its stomach
When i remember all the times he was with you

When you laid it dowwwn
When you laid down, next to me

I don't know when i lost my mind
Maybe when i made you mine
Wooooohhh ohhhhh
I don't know when i lost my mind
Maybe it was every time
That you said, you said, you saaaaaid
That i miss you, more then i let on
I kissed you, far to long
I'll let go, as soon as you do
See i know, were not through

I don't know when i lost my mind
maybe when i made you mine
Wooooooah ohhhhhh
I dont know when i lost my mind
Maybe it was every time
That you said, you said, you saaaaid
That I miss you
That i miss you
Wooooaahhh

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




That you said, you said, you saaaaaaid
That i miss you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ed Sheeran's song "Miss You" are both heartbreaking and relatable as they describe the feeling of missing someone who has left your life. In the first verse, the singer confesses to feeling lost and alone without the person they miss, their thoughts and emotions overwhelming them until they can no longer speak. The chorus repeats the same lines, indicating how consuming the feeling of missing someone can be. The second verse, however, takes a darker turn as the singer admits to feeling sick and suffocated by memories of the person they lost, recalling times when they were together and feeling betrayed by seeing them with someone else.


Overall, the song portrays the intense pain and disorientation that can come with losing someone, and the confusion that arises when your mind can no longer distinguish between love and obsession. It captures the way that missing someone can override all other thoughts and feelings, leaving you with a sense of emptiness and longing.

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
