Lyrics
Think I miss
Feeling a sense of longing or nostalgia
All of this
Missing everything associated with a past experience
All the little things
Yearning for the small, meaningful details
Packing up your bags
Recalling the act of preparing to depart
Remember when
Reflecting on a shared memory of carving names
We carved names and then
Expressing a moment of departure
You had to leave
Accepting the necessity of leaving
Nothing hurts that bad
Acknowledging that nothing hurts as much as separation
I bet you tell your friends it’s my fault
Suggesting a blame narrative and potential miscommunication
We ended the way we
Recalling the ending of the relationship
Promised me I had all of your heart
Being assured of having the partner's full commitment
But what does that mean when you're far away
Questioning the significance of love when physically apart
If love is just the words you say
Contemplating whether love is merely verbal expressions
I spoke enough for you to stay
Expressing oneself enough to warrant the partner's presence
Why the hell can’t you just stay?
Expressing frustration at the partner's departure
When you’re far away
Reiterating the challenges of distance in a relationship
If love is just the words you say
Questioning the authenticity of love expressed verbally
I spoke enough for you to stay
Believing one has communicated enough for the partner to stay
Why the hell can’t you just stay?
Expressing frustration and a desire for the partner to remain
