Say You Miss Me
Wilco · Being There [1996]
I've been sleeping alone
Out on my own
I'm sure it seems like I'm taking my time to get back to you
You've been doing your part
Working real hard
I'm not lying, sure it seems like I'm trying to get back at you
Oowoohoo
Do you miss me too?
Baby say I'll miss you
Just say you miss me too
Oowoohoo

Baby say I'll miss you
Just say you miss me too
I've been losing my mind
Wasting my time
I'm not crazy, sure it seems like I'm lazy let's get back to you
You've been taking it hard
I know it's hard
I'm not lying, sure it seems like I'm trying to get back at you
