Missing

As I threw your picture in the fire
I watched you melt away
You turned to smoke, you burned my eyes
But I couldn't escape my love for you and me
So why was I afraid

When you were next to me
Why didn't I tell you
You were so good to me
So why didn't I just take back everything I said to you
Take back everything I said to you
Take back everything I put you through
Why didn't I tell you

They said we never would survive
As I believed their lies
And then their words are verified
And I replace my heart for your demise
But you were always on my side

When you were next to me
Why didn't I tell you
You were so good to me
So why didn't I just take back everything I said to you
Take back everything I said to you
Take back everything i put you through
Why didn't I tell you
Why didn't I tell you

I love the way you understand
The way you love,
The way you were when no one was looking,
That you were beautiful and you were worth it all
You were everything I need
You capture my attention
Did I mention I think you're beautiful darling
If I could tell you now I'd tell you how the world is dark now that you're missing
Now that you're missing.

When you were next to me
Why didn't I tell you
You were so good to me
So why didn't I just take back everything I said to you
Take back everything I said to you
Take back everything I put you through
Why didn't I tell you
Why didn't I tell you that you were beautiful and you were worth it all
So why didn't I tell you
That if I could tell you now
Why didn't I tell that
That if I could tell you now
If I could tell you know
I'd say I love you
