I was just a little shy
Told myself that I would get by
Then my voice betrayed my disguise
So our words burned through the night

It's been two years
Since you became my home
Do you blame me
For holding on?

Tell me why I miss you before you've even gone away
Playing out all of the goodbyes even before they're said
Where do I go? Darling, I don't know
I'm a victim of my mind
Tell me why I miss you before you're even gone

Thinking of that summer day
When we'll go our separate ways
Where do we go from here?
Wishing we could just go back

Now I'm living for the time we have left
We can grow into this change

Tell me why I miss you before you've even gone away
Playing out all of the goodbyes even before they're said
Where do I go? Darling, I don't know
I'm a victim of my mind
Tell me why I miss you before you're even gone

Can we focus on just today
Before these memories begin to turn to gray
Can we focus on just today
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why
You're gone you're gone you're even gone
Tell me why (x4)

Tell me why I miss you before you're even gone
You're even gone
