DonˇŻt Miss You At All
Norah Jones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fallin' down
I don't miss you at all
I hear children playin', laughin' so loud
I don't think of your smile
So if you never come to me
You'll stay a distant memory
Your dark eyes don't haunt me
And then I wonder who I am
Without the warm touch of your hand
And then I wonder who I am
Without the warm touch of your hand
As I sit and watch the snow
Fallin' down
I don't miss you at all
I don't miss you at all
I don't miss you at all
Norah Jones's song "Don't Miss You at All" contains lyrics capturing the essence of being at peace with the absence of someone who was once a significant part of one's life. The song opens with Norah sitting and watching the snow fall, creating an atmosphere of calm but also indicating that time has passed since the one she is addressing was last present. The melody is soothing, and Jones's voice is like a lullaby, lulling the listener into a dreamy state.
The following lines indicate that despite the beauty of the snow and the sound of children playing, the person she once knew is not present in her thoughts. The use of the phrase "distant memory" denotes a sense of distance between them, not just literally but also emotionally. Jones acknowledges that the person might not return, and she has come to terms with that. She has moved on, and the joys around her are no longer tinted with the sorrow of missing the one she once loved.

As I sit and watch the snow
As I watch the snow outside, I am not thinking of you.
Fallin' down
The snow is falling outside.
I don't miss you at all
I don't feel any longing or desire for you.
I hear children playin', laughin' so loud
The sound of children's laughter drowns out any thoughts of you.
I don't think of your smile
You and the memory of your smile does not cross my mind.
So if you never come to me
If I never see you again,
You'll stay a distant memory
You will remain a vague recollection of the past.
Out my window I see lights going dark
As I look out my window, I see lights turning off.
Your dark eyes don't haunt me
Your dark eyes no longer have any power over me.
And then I wonder who I am
I question my identity and sense of self.
Without the warm touch of your hand
Without your physical touch, who am I?
And then I wonder who I am
Again, I am questioning my own identity without you.
Without the warm touch of your hand
Once again, I contemplate my sense of self without your touch.
As I sit and watch the snow
The scene of snow continues to provide a backdrop for my thoughts.
Fallin' down
The snow is still falling.
I don't miss you at all
I remain unchanged in my lack of feelings towards you.

… As I sit and watch the snow
Fallin' down
I don't miss you at all
I hear children playin', laughin' so loud
I don't think of your smile
… So if you never come to me
You'll stay a distant memory
Out my window I see lights going dark
Your dark eyes don't haunt me
And then I wonder who I am
Without the warm touch of your hand
… And then I wonder who I am
Without the warm touch of your hand
As I sit and watch the snow
Fallin' down
… I don't miss you at all
I don't miss you at all
I don't miss you at all
