Lyrics
VERSE
There once was a time you could call her name
And she would run to your side
She was there if you needed her; she asked little in return
But now look around; is this love you found?
Can it be, now you see, you need her, too
Is it too much to admit that she was all you'll ever need?
CHORUS
Now, mister, do you miss her?
Can't you hear her calling out your name?
Mister, do you miss her?
Can't you see the love she holds?
Do you feel (the same [except last chorus])?
VERSE
You knew there was love in her heart to give
But you were blind, so unkind; can she forgive?
Put those things behind her; take you back into her life
What does it mean when you lose the heart of someone true
It was you she always loved; there was freedom in your words
But "never let me go" in your heart
Repeat CHORUS
BRIDGE
Are you ever going to find a love that gives you everything you need
When standing right in front of you is love you just can't see
RIDE
Repeat CHORUS
TAG
Do you feel, do you feel the same?
Hey, mister, do you miss her?
Hey, mister, do you miss her?
Hey, mister, do you miss her?
