Once You Start Missing Me
I saw a fire in you
But you saw nothing in me
Guess that's why you made your mind up
And decided to leave
Just know that I really loved you
And I'm missing you less each day
Yeah, it starts to hurt sometimes
But then I recall how you threw me away
I don't much like to think
But it's getting so much easier, you see
I even let my mind wander to your smile
And the feeling of your arms around me
I also think about your kiss
So innocent and so sweet
How it made me feel like I was home
How it made me feel complete
Quite a few nights I lie awake
Praying to just fall asleep
But I grew accustomed to rolling over
And you sleepily kissing my cheek
Don't get me wrong,
I can't help but cry
It's still a searing pain
With each long day that drags it's way by
You piss me off and make me mad
Without doing a thing
But I guess that's on me
Only because we no longer speak
I'm moving on
And I'm getting stronger
Hoping there will be a day
When I will love you no longer
I wanted you more than you wanted me
But please just remember
I won't be missing you
Once you start missing me
But you saw nothing in me
Guess that's why you made your mind up
And decided to leave
Just know that I really loved you
And I'm missing you less each day
Yeah, it starts to hurt sometimes
But then I recall how you threw me away
I don't much like to think
But it's getting so much easier, you see
I even let my mind wander to your smile
And the feeling of your arms around me
I also think about your kiss
So innocent and so sweet
How it made me feel like I was home
How it made me feel complete
Quite a few nights I lie awake
Praying to just fall asleep
But I grew accustomed to rolling over
And you sleepily kissing my cheek
Don't get me wrong,
I can't help but cry
It's still a searing pain
With each long day that drags it's way by
You piss me off and make me mad
Without doing a thing
But I guess that's on me
Only because we no longer speak
I'm moving on
And I'm getting stronger
Hoping there will be a day
When I will love you no longer
I wanted you more than you wanted me
But please just remember
I won't be missing you
Once you start missing me
