"Missing"

"Missing"

For King And Country

I threw your picture in the fire

I watched you melt away

You turned to smoke, you burned my eyes

But I couldn't escape

My love for you remains

So why was I afraid?

When you were next to me,

Why didn't I tell you?

You were so good to me

Why didn't I just take back everything I said to you?

And take back everything I put you through?

Why didn't I tell you?

They said we never would survive

And I believed the lies

And then their words were verified

When I replaced my heart for your demise

But you were always on the side

When you were next to me,

Why didn't I tell you?

You were so good to me

Why didn't I just take back everything I said to you?

And take back everything I put you through?

Why didn't I tell you?

I love the way you understand,

The way you love,

The way you were when no one was looking

That you were beautiful and you were worth it all

You were everything I need

You captured my attention,

Did I mention I think you're beautiful, darling?

If I could tell you now,

I'd tell you how the world is dark now that you're missing

Now that you're missing

When you were next to me,

Why didn't I tell you?

You were so good to me

And why didn't I just take back everything I said to you?

And take back everything I put you through?

Why didn't I tell you?

I love the way you understand,

The way you love,

The way you were

Why didn't I tell you?

That you were beautiful

And you were worth it all

So why didn't I tell you?

You captured my attention, did I mention?

So why didn't I tell you?

That you were beautiful

That you were worth it all

So why didn't I tell you?

If I could tell you now

I'd say I love you
