I Miss You Lyrics

You said you wanted to die

We said we want you to live

But you were near 95

And we were just selfish kids

And you were trying to be real

I can't imagine just how hard that was to do

I miss you

You said you'd lived long enough

And you were ready to go

You did your crosswords at noon

Then fell asleep to your shows

You were so tired of that screen

I can't imagine just how hard it was for you

Still I miss you

Everybody knows that death will come

to claim them in the end

But I do suppose for you he was

a long awaited friend

When it was nearing the time

I hope your heart still felt clear

And that the call of beyond

Was a mercy to hear

Cause you were finally free

I can't imagine what it felt like passing through

I miss you

I miss you

I miss you

I miss you
