Miss Me

You're gonna miss my love when it's gone
cause life is too short and our fights are too long baby
there's a cold wind blowin' thru you and me

like a broken old dictaphone
I seem to record your little speeches all wrong now
if this is love then please let me be

I can't recall what you said last night
but it's alright with me if you need to be right
it was dark, I was drunk, and the dog tripped me

But I guess time is a river that rolls to the sea
and the sea is a sky for the stars in the trees
and the stars are just falling thru time
and time is all in your mind

I saw your boy down on the avenue
walkin' round down and lost in his bowling shoes
I heard you left him standin' at the parade

Now he wanders out in the rain
without an umbrella lookin' so insane
why don't you call he's been fallin'
ever since you cut that leash

that little bird's been flyin' in your sights
but he broke his neck on your window last night dear
so come on and bring it on home to me

cause time be a river that rollls to the sea
and the sea is reflecting the stars on their knees
and the stars are just fallin' thru time
and time is all in your mind

I ask myself now if dogs could fly
would I take your picture from a purple sky
would I frame it, would I put it on my wall for all to see

Well maybe I could and maybe I won't and maybe
I just can't and maybe I don't understand anything
but I know you and me we were meant to be

cause time is a river that rolls to the sea
and the sea is reflecting the stars on their knees
and the stars are just howlin' in the wind child
and the wind is blowin' thru them trees
