Ways To Miss You
Tyler Braden Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If I fill it up and throw it back
It'll get you right off my mind
But one taste of that straight up Southern Comfort
Puts me right back, right up under
Those Southern stars, and I′m in your arms
And it's all that I can do not to run right back to you
Woah, woah, woah-oh
I've been up all night, burnin′ out every neon light
And I′ve closed down every dive that I've been into
I′ve tried leanin' in, tried to kiss you off of my lips
Tryin′ to find a way to forget you
But all I've found are all new ways to miss you
All I′ve found are all new ways to miss you
They say if I burn old photographs
Those memories of what we had
Go up in smoke, but I don't know
'Cause when I light that match and feel that fire look
Same as I saw in your eyes, I′m
Back again in that first night
Outta sight and outta mind
I′ve been up all night, burnin' out every neon light
And I′ve closed down every dive that I've been into
I′ve tried leanin' in, tried to kiss you off of my lips
Tryin′ to find a way to forget you
But all I've found are all new ways to miss you
All new ways to miss you
I can't find the kind of gone that could get me movin′ on
Woah, woah, woah-oh
I′ve been up all night, burnin' out every neon light
And I′ve closed down every dive that I've been into
I′ve tried leanin' in, tried to kiss you off of my lips
Tryin′ to find a way to forget you
But all I've found are all new ways to miss you
All I've found are all new ways to miss you
I miss you
The lyrics of Tyler Braden's song "Ways to Miss You" are a reflection of the singer's struggle to move on from a past lover. Despite his attempts to drink away his pain or burn old memories, he cannot escape the longing and emptiness he feels without his ex-partner. The lyrics are poignant and vividly describe the pain the singer feels when he is alone with his thoughts, and how he tries to numb the pain through unhealthy coping mechanisms.
The first verse describes how the singer seeks comfort in alcohol, hoping that it will chase away his ex-partner from his mind. However, the whiskey only serves to remind him of the good times he once shared with his lover, and he cannot help but yearn for them once more. He has tried going out and partying till dawn, but all these attempts to forget his ex have failed, leaving him with "all new ways to miss you" and feeling more lost than ever.
The second verse describes how he tries to let go of his ex's memories by burning old photographs, hoping that the flames will consume his lingering feelings. But when he lights the match, the fire looks the same as the one he once saw in his ex-partner's eyes, taking him back to that first night they met when everything felt perfect. The singer is stuck in a vicious cycle of trying to forget his ex-partner but being unable to do so and finding new ways to miss them.

I heard there's help in a whiskey glass
I've been told that drinking whiskey can help me forget you
If I fill it up and throw it back
If I drink enough whiskey, maybe I'll forget you
It'll get you right off my mind
Drinking whiskey will help me stop thinking about you
But one taste of that straight up Southern Comfort
Drinking Southern Comfort reminds me of you
Puts me right back, right up under
Drinking Southern Comfort takes me back to our time together
Those Southern stars, and I'm in your arms
I feel like I'm with you again, under the Southern stars
And it's all that I can do not to run right back to you
I want to be with you again, but I'm trying not to give in
Woah, woah, woah-oh
I'm struggling to move on
I've been up all night, burnin' out every neon light
I've been staying up all night trying to forget you
And I've closed down every dive that I've been into
I've been going out and drinking to try and forget you
I've tried leanin' in, tried to kiss you off of my lips
I've tried to replace you with someone else, but it hasn't worked
Tryin' to find a way to forget you
I'm desperately trying to move on from you
But all I've found are all new ways to miss you
Nothing is helping me forget you, I just miss you more
They say if I burn old photographs
People say that if I get rid of reminders of you it will help me move on
Those memories of what we had
Those old memories are keeping me stuck in the past
Go up in smoke, but I don't know
I'm not sure if burning old photographs will actually help
Cause when I light that match and feel that fire look
When I burn the photographs, it just reminds me of the passion we had
Same as I saw in your eyes, I'm
The fire in the photographs reminds me of the fire I saw in your eyes
Back again in that first night
I'm back in our first night together, reliving it all over again
Outta sight and outta mind
The saying 'out of sight, out of mind' doesn't work for me when it comes to you
I can't find the kind of gone that could get me movin' on
I can't seem to find a way to forget you and move on
I miss you
I just miss you

TYLER BRADEN (2021) – WAYS TO MISS YOU (Traducción en español)
I heard there's help in a whiskey glass
Oí que una copa de whisky ayuda
If I fill it up and throw it back
Si la lleno y la bebo de un trago
It'll get you right off my mind
Conseguirá sacarte de mi cabeza
But one taste of that straight up Southern Comfort
Pero una prueba con “Southern Comfort” solo
Puts me right back, right up under
Me lleva de vuelta, justo bajo
Those Southern stars, and I'm in your arms
Aquellas estrellas del sur, y a mí en tus brazos
And it's all that I can do not to run right back to you
Y es todo lo que puedo hacer para no correr de vuelta a ti
Woah, woah, woah-oh
I've been up all night, burnin' out every neon light
He estado en pie toda la noche, agotando cada luz de neón
And I've closed down every dive that I've been into
Y he cerrado cada tugurio en el que he estado
I've tried leanin' in, tried to kiss you off of my lips
He tratado de hacerme valer, he tratado de hacer caso omiso de ti en mis labios
Tryin' to find a way to forget you
Tratando de hallar una manera de olvidarte
But all I've found are all-new ways to miss you
Pero todo lo que he hallado son nuevas maneras de extrañarte
All I've found are all-new ways to miss you
Todo lo que he hallado son nuevas maneras de extrañarte
They say if I burn old photographs
Dicen que si quemo viejas fotografías
Those memories of what we had
Aquellos recuerdos de lo que tuvimos
Go up in smoke, but I don't know
Se convierten en humo, pero no sé
'Cause when I light that match and feel that fire look
Porque cuando prendo esa cerilla y siento esa mirada de fuego
Same as I saw in your eyes, I'm
Igual que la que vi en tus ojos, yo
Back again in that first night
Regreso de nuevo a aquella primera noche
Outta sight and outta mind
Ojos que no ven, corazón que no siente
I've been up all night, burnin' out every neon light
He estado en pie toda la noche, agotando cada luz de neón
And I've closed down every dive that I've been into
Y he cerrado cada tugurio en el que he estado
I've tried leanin' in, tried to kiss you off of my lips
He tratado de hacerme valer, he tratado de hacer caso omiso de ti en mis labios
Tryin' to find a way to forget you
Tratando de hallar una manera de olvidarte
But all I've found are all-new ways to miss you
Pero todo lo que he hallado son nuevas maneras de extrañarte
All I've found are all-new ways to miss you
Todo lo que he hallado son nuevas maneras de extrañarte
I can't find the kind of gone that could get me movin' on
No puedo hallar lo que que podría hacerme seguir adelante
Woah, woah, woah-oh
I've been up all night, burnin' out every neon light
He estado en pie toda la noche, agotando cada luz de neón
And I've closed down every dive that I've been into
Y he cerrado cada tugurio en el que he estado
I've tried leanin' in, tried to kiss you off of my lips
He tratado de hacerme valer, he tratado de hacer caso omiso de ti en mis labios
Tryin' to find a way to forget you
Tratando de hallar una manera de olvidarte
But all I've found are all-new ways to miss you
Pero todo lo que he hallado son nuevas maneras de extrañarte
All I've found are all-new ways to miss you
Todo lo que he hallado son nuevas maneras de extrañarte
I miss you
Te extraño
