I'm Gonna Miss You After All
Sawyer Brown · The Boys Are Back [Capitol] [1989]
Let you go where your life leads you
But I'm gonna miss you after all
I thought I wrote you off completely
And cleaned up my heart so neatly
But I'm gonna miss you after all.
After all these angry words and after all our tears
It's a wonder any love survived at all
But after all these lonely nights I'm wishin' you were here
I guess you never know you fell until you fall.
I'm gonna miss you after all
So I'm paintin the town without you
But everynight it just turns out blue
And I'm gonna miss you after all.
Theres lots of girls but no one like you
No one I can give my heart to
And I'm gonna miss you after all.
After all these angry words and after all our tears
It's a wonder any love survived at all
But after all these lonely nights I'm wishin you were here
I guess you never know you fell until you fall
I'm gonna miss you after all.
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you
Looks like I'm gonna miss you after all
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you
looks like I'm gonna miss you after all
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you...
