I Miss You

Incubus · Incubus Hq Live [2012]

To see you when I wake up

Is a gift I didn't think could be real.

To know that you feel the same as I do

Is a three-fold, utopian dream.



You do something to me that I can't explain.

So would I be out of line if i said

I miss you.



I see your picture,

I smell your skin on the empty pillow, next to mine.

You have only been gone ten days

But already I'm wasting away.



I know I'll see you again

Whether far or soon.

But I need you to know that I care

And, I miss You.

(i miss you)

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
