I Don't Miss You
Eric Nam Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hear you speaking
Your words they lost their meaning
And I'm so done with dealing
Dealing with you

Feels like you're reaching
For something I ain't seeing
Don't mean to be misleading
Misleading to you

When I said we could stay friends
Why'd you believe it
Being friends is something lovers just can't do
When I said maybe one day
I didn't mean it
Well at least right now, I'm telling you the truth
I don't miss you

When you go
Go your way and I'll go mine
Let it go
Don't look back you'll be alright
I don't miss you
Don't miss me, too

I know your hurting
No easy way word it
You'll find someone who's perfect
Perfect for you

But it just ain't me
Don't mind if you just hate me
Take back this time you're wasting
And spend it on you

When I said we could stay friends
Why'd you believe it
Being friends is something lovers just can't do
When I said maybe one day
I didn't mean it
Well at least right now, I'm telling you the truth
I don't miss you

When you go
Go your way and I'll go mine
Let it go
Don't look back you'll be alright
I don't miss you
Don't miss me, too
I don't miss you
Don't miss me, too

It's not easy to let go
Of what we had
We lost that feeling
It's over, we can't go back
We could try to work it out
But tell me what's the use in that
'Cause I don't miss you

When you go
Go your way and I'll go mine
Let it go
Don't look back you'll be alright
I don't miss you
Don't miss me, too




I don't miss you
Don't miss me, too

Overall Meaning

In Eric Nam's song "I Don't Miss You", the lyrics depict a narrative of a couple who have broken up, with the singer emphasizing that he doesn't miss his ex-partner. The opening lines set the tone with the singer tired of hearing meaningless words coming from his partner. He expresses his desire to move on and stop dealing with the issues and problems that arise from this relationship. The chorus follows the singer's desire to move on and continue with his life, asking his ex-partner to do the same. He emphasizes the importance of looking forward and not looking back, creating a sense of finality and closure to their relationship.


The second verse shows the singer's genuine concern for his ex-partner's well-being, acknowledging her hurt caused by their breakup. He reassures her that there is someone out there perfect for her, but it isn't him. The chorus repeats itself again, emphasizing the singer's desire to move on and continue with his life, and ultimately concludes with the singer acknowledging the fact that working it out is futile because the feeling they once had is gone.


This song's lyrics reveal the complicated nature of relationships and how difficult it can be to move on even after a breakup. It is a reminder of how important it is for individuals to prioritize themselves and focus on their own happiness when their relationships end.

Focus your time and energy on self-improvement and self-care


It's not easy to let go
It's difficult to release the attachment to our past relationship


Of what we had
Of the memories and emotions we shared as a couple


We lost that feeling
We no longer have the same emotions or connection as before


It's over, we can't go back
Our relationship has ended and cannot be restored


We could try to work it out
We could attempt to reconcile and fix our relationship


But tell me what's the use in that
But what's the point if our emotions and feelings have changed?

@inoutlove.09

i always miss you...
sometimes I think when NewMelody right now there is...
it would be better...
I noticed that you are always here for me... <3
I spoke with my sister and some friends about that...
but I noticed that you are the only guy who understand me...
Thank you so much what you are doing for me...<3
love you :-)<3


sorry that you have to read so many sentences :-\



@user-tt5tw3ut1x

why being single is much better (and not having feelings) :

• don't have to worry too much about someone

• don't have to feel like you're annoying to them

• don't feel like you have to message/call them (all the time)

• won't get heartbroken

• won't have to worry about cheating

• won't have to impress anyone

• won't have to be jealous

add more if you want, these are just some of the things that came to mind, but honestly being single is actually not that bad of course you will feel lonely but like there are some good things about it
