Maybe I'm Still Missing You

Maybe You Haven't Got a Clue

Maybe I was stupid. Maybe I’m naive.

Maybe I held too tightly onto something make believe.

Maybe I wanted more than you were willing to release.

Maybe I’m not enough for you to ever love.

Maybe broken pieces are all that’s left of me.

Maybe heartbreak is my destiny.

Maybe I’m too good at turning pain into a melody.

Maybe I’m crazy. Maybe I’m a fool.

Maybe one day I’ll get over you,

but for now I can’t stop missing you.

Maybe I’m terrified. Maybe I’m dead inside.

Invader of my dreams, maybe you are my kryptonite.

Maybe I am going to love you for the rest of my life.

Maybe I’m just a little too do or die.

Maybe heavy hearts can’t fly.

Maybe you and I are made of particles destined to collide.

You left so quietly, didn’t even fight for me.

Maybe we exist in alternate realities.

Maybe it’s not meant to be. Maybe it’s just bad timing.

Maybe all these words are a waste of breath.

Maybe loving you is worse than death.

Maybe time is an illusion. Maybe one moment can last forever.

Maybe in some other world you and I are still together,

living inside of each other.

Maybe this universe isn’t for us. Maybe we’ve sung our last chorus.

Maybe it’s not too late. Maybe with time things change,

Or maybe they stay the same.

Maybe six years could turn into twenty and I’d still crave you like bears to honey.

Maybe you don’t love me.

Maybe memories of you will fade and one day I won’t be haunted by your face.

Maybe home is not a place.

There are a lot of things that I don’t know. I’ve still got lots of room to grow.

But there is one thing I’m absolutely sure of,

I’m still missing you.
