Miss You Being Gone

Wish I would have noticed sooner

All that crazy in your eyes

Do you practice in the mirror

On that tempting crooked smile

Like the serpent in the garden

You came crawling back to me

Twice I ate that poisoned apple

Made me sick of being Eve

Well I'll admit that I was wrong

You said "I miss you

Oh yes I do

Honey, I miss you being gone"

I saw that floozy you've been wooing

On your ex-best buddy's arm

And I knew you'd soon be slinking back, turning on the charm

Yeah well, cupid ain't a boozer

And in a tavern throwing darts

Do you think I walk around

With a bulls-eye on my heart?

Well, I'll admit that I was wrong

You said "I miss you

Oh yes I do

Sugar, I miss you being gone"

I miss you like

Drama queens and cat fights and braces on prom night

I miss you like

Boy bands and cheap cologne, our song and chaperones and all the other things that I've outgrown

Well you know you've got the mojo

But it ain't working me no more

and I swear I won't be checking you out when you walk out my door

I'll admit that I was wrong

You said I miss you

And boy you got issues

Honey I miss you being gone

Being gone

Being gone

Thank God you're gone
