Miss

I saw you last night
Walking against the wind
Your hair pulled back
For once
And I thought about how I miss you

Somehow I found my way home
In the dark among the storm
And I tasted the rain on my tongue
And I thought all of your crazy thoughts
And how I miss you

Somehow I made my way inside
I put on my robe
and my boxers
and my Dr. Martens
And I played your record
And prayed you could hear it turn
And I thought about how I miss you

I poured myself your cup of coffee
Foam and sugar, not too hot
It drips onto my hand and burns my mouth
When I lick it off
And I miss you

Would you mind if I danced a while
Would you mind if I tried to sing
Would you mind if I kissed your face
Can you hear me in your quiet world
Kiss the sky and the rain for me
Paint me a word, I'll be watching
And thinking about how I missed you.
