Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah
Wish I told her how I felt
Maybe she'd be here right now, but instead
[Chorus]
I pretended I'm glad you went away
These four walls closin' more every day
And I'm dyin' inside, and nobody knows it but me
Like a clown, I put on a show
The pain is real, even if nobody knows
And I'm cryin' inside, and nobody knows it but me
[Verse 1]
Why didn't I say the things I needed to say?
How could I let my angel get away?
Now, my world is just a-tumblin' down
I can say it so clearly, but you're nowhere around
[Chorus]
The nights are lonely, the days are so sad
And I just keep thinkin' about the love that we had
And I'm missin' you, and nobody knows it but me (Yeah, you, c'mon)
[Verse 2]
I carry a smile when I'm broken in two
And I'm nobody without someone like you
I'm tremblin' inside and nobody knows it but me
Yeah, yeah
I lie awake, it's a quarter past three
I'm screamin' at night if I thought you'd hear me
Yeah, my heart is callin' you and nobody knows it but me
[Verse 3]
How blue can I get? You could ask my heart
But like a jigsaw puzzle, it's been torn all apart
Million words couldn't say just how I feel
A million years from now, you know I'll be lovin' you still
[Chorus]
The nights are lonely, the days are so sad (Nights are lonely)
And I just keep thinkin' about the love that we had (Oh, so sad, well, well, well)
And I'm missin' you, and nobody knows it but me
Yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
Whoa, yeah, ooh, oh, oh, no, no, no, no
Nobody, nobody, but me
[Verse 4]
Tomorrow mornin', I'm hittin' the dusty road
Gonna find you wherever, ever you might go
And I'm gonna unload my heart, and hope you come back to me, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Said when the nights are lonely
The nights are lonely, the days are so sad (Oh, oh, oh)
And I just keep thinkin' about the love that we had (Yeah, about, said I love)
And I'm missin' you, and nobody knows it but me (I'm missing you, babe, yeah, yeah)
Someday
[Chorus]
The nights are lonely, the days are so sad (Since you been gone, babe)
And I just keep thinkin' about the love that we had (Girl, I've been missing you, babe, I always thought that you'd be)
And I'm missin' you, and nobody knows it but me (Right by my side, yeah, oh, babe, nobody knows it)
No, nobody but me, yeah
[Outro]
The nights are lonely, the days are so sad
And I just keep thinkin' about the love that we had
And I'm missin' you, and nobody knows it but me
