What I Miss Most

It must have been a year since

I was thrown across an ocean far from home

Life is making no sense

Riding in between the highs and lows

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

When I wake in the morning, I

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

It's the first on my mind

Maybe what I miss most

It wasn't made of steel and stone

And maybe what I miss most

It wasn't born of skin and bone

Under the sun, above the waves

Under three crowns when I'm far away

Maybe what I miss most

And maybe I'll never know

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

And maybe you'll never know

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Maybe you'll never know

Life beyond the window

I'm jealous of the way that black bird flies

Free among the people

Those quarter million stories pass me by

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Lie awake in the moonlight, I

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

It's the last on my mind

And maybe what I miss most

It wasn't made of steel and stone

And maybe what I miss most

It wasn't born of skin and bone

Under the sun, above the waves

Under three crowns when I'm far away

Maybe what I miss most

And maybe I'll never know

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

And maybe you'll never know

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

And maybe you'll never know

I remember at the table

All those faces, where did they go?

I imagine what it looks like

When I'm not there

I remember, every summer

But now the years are just a number

There's no backwards

Time is faster with everything I've left behind, oh

But maybe what I miss most

It wasn't made of steel and stone

And maybe what I miss most

It wasn't born of skin and bone

'Cause under the sun, above the waves

Under three crowns when I'm far away

Maybe what I miss most

And maybe you'll never know

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Maybe you'll never know

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

And maybe you'll never know

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
