Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so
I just woke up from a dream today
Time gone by but you still look the same
Felt so real to have you back with me
It's just too bad it's just another dream
If I could give it all away
I'd do it just for one more day
I thought I had the time to wait
Now it's too late to tell you that I
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so, I do
(I miss you so much)
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so, I do
(God knows I do, i)
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so, I do
(I miss you so much)
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so, I do
After dark, laughin' in the rain
Silver heart locket on a chain
Well pictures fade and silver turns to grey
But the best of thieves couldn't take my love away
(Give me just one wish)
If I could give it all away
I'd do it just for one more day
I'd trade it in for one more moment
Tell you what I never told you
All the things I left unsaid
I meant to say before you left
I thought I had the time to wait
Now it's too late to tell you that I
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so, I do
(I miss you so much)
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so, I do
(God knows I do, i)
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so, I do
(I miss you so much)
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so, I do
If there was some way, you know I would
I'd do it today, I wish I could
I call out your name, it does no good
I wish I knew what would
I, I miss you so much
God knows I do, I
I wish my wish was enough
(Give me just one wish)
If I could give it all away
I'd do it just for one more day (i miss you so much)
I'd trade it in for one more moment
Tell you what I never told you (god knows I do, i)
All the things I left unsaid
I meant to say before you left (i miss you so much)
I thought I had the time to wait
Now it's too late to tell you that I
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so, I do
(I miss you so much)
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so, I do
(God knows I do, i)
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so, I do
(I miss you so much)
I miss you so, so, I do
I miss you so, so
The song "Miss You" by Nickelback is a powerful ballad that explores the emotions of longing and regret that come with losing a loved one. The lyrics paint a poignant picture of the singer's desire to turn back time and reunite with the person they've lost. The repeated refrain of "I miss you so" underscores the depth of the singer's sadness and gives voice to the universal human experience of missing someone.
The first verse of the song describes a dream that the singer has had where their loved one is with them again. This dream is bittersweet, as it highlights the fact that the person is no longer alive and that the singer can only be with them in their dreams. The second verse goes on to describe happy memories of the person when they were alive, including laughing in the rain and wearing a silver heart locket. The singer expresses regret for not having said everything that they wanted to say before the person's death, and for assuming that there would always be more time.
The chorus of the song is the emotional centerpiece, with the singer repeating the words "I miss you so" over and over again. The repetition serves to emphasize the intensity of the singer's feelings and to reinforce the central theme of the song. The bridge of the song introduces the idea of wishing for the person to come back, and the frustration of not being able to make that happen. The final chorus feels like a desperate plea, with the singer shouting out the words "I miss you so much" with increasing desperation.
Overall, "Miss You" is a heart-wrenching song that captures the raw emotions of grief and loss, and the human desire to turn back time and do things differently. The lyrics are beautifully written and powerfully delivered, making the song a moving tribute to those who we have loved and lost.
