My biggest fear ain't tigers
Or spiders, or heights
Or getting lost somewhere at sea
It's one that I've been playing in my head
Since you left
And it shows up in my dreams

Best case, I'll move on and I get better
Worst case, this drags on and on forever

What if the missing you don't ever go away?
What if you're burned into my brain?
What if my heart's already made up its mind?
And what if I find somebody new
And I'm about to say: I do
Then out of the blue, I think of you?
Hell, what a mess
So, let me miss him now
But God, don't let me miss him in a wedding dress

I don't mind missing you
In a bar, late nights, or in the car
On my birthday, or when I meet someone
With your same name
At the store on aisle nine
When I see the coffee that you like
That's fine
Just not when I'm wearing white

What if the missing you don't ever go away?
What if you're burned into my brain?
What if my heart's already made up its mind?
And what if I find somebody new
And I'm about to say: I do
Then out of the blue, I think of you?
Hell, what a mess
So, let me miss him now
But God, don't let me miss him in a wedding dress

It keeps me up at night, thinking

What if the missing you don't ever go away?
What if you're burned into my brain?
Heart's already made up its mind
And what if I find somebody new
And I'm about to say: I do
Then out of the blue, I think of you?
Hell, what a mess
So, let me miss him now
Oh, let me miss him now
But God, don't let me miss him in a wedding dress
