MISS YOU Lyrics

This one is for my mom and my dad

I hope you guys like it

Summer fireworks at the end of June

The roads were all closed down so we

Took the sidewalk and I got to walk with you

12 years old, thought I could do a bake sale

on my own

But I had your

Expertise with recipes and poster board

Your full support

You had spent all day at the oven while you

Let me write that sign on a poster and the

Night got darker as we sat there on the corner of the street

Watching the sky together

Mom

Growing up and

Growing old

Moving on I

Want you to know

That I miss you

And I wish you were

I miss you

And I wish you were here

Birthday candle nights were in July dressing up as pirates in the street

You were pirate captain of the water fights

At ten years old, I might've been a handful

on my own

But you have always been

So good at at playing along during games

With me even though I could drive you insane

Quoting Disney movies while you taught me how to cook

Dressed up for a birthday party just like Captain Hook

I remember every second cause you made it all so real

Dad

Growing up and

Growing old

Moving on I

Want you to know

That I miss you

And I wish you were

I miss you

And I wish you were here

And there are too many memories I couldn't fit them all

Into a melody no

If I could then I would I would write a song just for

Nostalgia sake holding to every last Moment

Of sunrises moving from houses to bike rides and birthdays

Hearing me practice and coming to smile from the audience

Holding to every every last memory

I have of growing up

With you

Far away from home I miss you dearly

I want to try to grow up but I wish

You were still here with me

Cause only one phone call to hear

You will never feel as close

As knowing you would be

Waiting up for me when I get back home

Never feel as close

As knowing you

Would be waiting up for me when I get back home
