Fingertips stained black from those old guitar strings
Hours spent waiting for a phone that never rings
Hoping maybe, oh maybe you'll call tonight
Yeah I know you won't, but I tell myself you might

Ohh, why you gotta be so far away
Baby believe me every time I say
I miss you
Since you left, every single day
Wishing you could honestly say
I miss you
Ohh I miss you

We shared dreams we had for what felt like forever
I guess I thought we would follow them together
They say you've moved on and I know that I should too
But this stubborn heart just keeps on missing you

Ohh, why you gotta be so far away
Baby believe me every time I say
I miss you
Since you left, every single day
Wishing you could honestly say
I miss you
Ohh I miss you

I miss when this town was enough
Back when you called me your love
I miss those times in the truck
We talked about fate and luck
Always singing and playing our songs
Not even caring if we got it all wrong

I miss when I was enough

Ohh, why you gotta be so far away
Baby believe me every time I say
I miss you
Since you left, every single day
Wishing you could honestly say
I miss you
Ohh I miss you

As people grow up in small towns, heartbreak seems inevitable. Because at some point we all realize we can't wait to leave.
