tear rolled out of my eye when I caught myself reminiscing
I'm stuck dwelling on memories im in the present I'm missing
I'm missing you, I'm missing us, I'm missing me
I miss me because I was happy with you
When I was with you I let go and let God
Now I smile but behind that smile is pain and loneliness
I find myself drinking out of love for thoughts of you-
To just leave me, maybe -
Maybe when i learn to live without you i'll get sober
I'll be back to the real me it'll be over
No whispers of your name making my head pound-hangovers
Deep inside I know it wasn't meant to be
Because the man I asked God for is nothing like you
I'm very impatient and I know that
But right now I'm asking God for grace to wait for him
He that is promised that it shall be well
What I'm saying is time is all I need to get myself together
I'll be fine, I just need time
