āI Miss How We Used to Beā
By Cheyenne hannigan
[Verse 1]āØI miss how close we used to be,āØAnd I know that's partially on me.āØI'm sorry for the words Iāve thrown,āØYears of pain I shouldāve never shown.
I miss when I was just a little girl,āØYouād hold me tight, you were my world.āØWeād head down to the garage late at night,āØSinginā songs while you sipped your Keystone Light.
[Chorus]āØI miss you more than you'll ever know,āØMore with every other day I grow.āØI miss your brown eyes, that deep laugh too,āØI miss the way I belonged to you.āØI miss being your girl, wild and free,āØI miss how we used to be.āØAnd even though Iāve caused you pain,āØIād take it back, Iād try again.āØ'Cause I love you more than youāll understand,āØYou're still my hero, still my dad.
[Verse 2]āØI'm sorry for the things I said in rage,āØThe words I can't erase from the page.āØI was hurt, I was young and confused,āØBut I never meant to hurt you too.
It hurts I canāt see you like before,āØNo every-other-weekends, no open door.āØI miss your arms around me tight,āØSinging to the moon in the quiet night.
[Bridge]āØI know life pulled us far apart,āØBut youāre still written on my heart.āØI hope our bond can grow again,āØLike back when I was three or five
Dancinā in the sawdust, laughinā loud,āØYouād lift me up ā I felt so proud.āØTossinā wood and singinā low,āØDown in that garage long ago.
[Chorus]āØI miss you more than you'll ever know,āØMore than the summer sun can show.āØI miss the sound of your old guitar,āØI miss just knowinā where you are.āØI miss being your girl, young and wild,āØWith your warm voice callinā me your child.āØAnd even when I hide my tears,āØI love you more with every year.āØYou're still my best friend, no pretend,āØThe reason I still try to mend.
[Outro]āØI wish things were different ā oh, I do.āØBut through it all, I still love you.āØYou're my daddy, always will be...āØAnd I just miss how we used to be.
