[Verse 1]

Tracing your birthmark with my fingers

I'll never forget the shape

On your birthday I'll try and hide it

But my eyes will give me away

And I wonder if inside

I'll commit this all to memory

Because I paint you in my mind

Even after all you told me


[Chorus]

When your name doesn't hurt to say

And I think about you less each passing day

When I can't feel your weight

Will I miss the way it feels to miss you?

Missing you, missing you, oh oh

Oh, missing you, missing you, oh


[Verse 2]

Holding the pulse within my hands

I'll never let it go

But after long my will is weakened

And I might lose control

And I wonder if in time

You would care if I forgot you

Because I paint you every night

It's a hell that I put myself through


[Chorus]

When your name doesn't hurt to say

And I think about you less each passing day

When I can't feel your weight

Will I miss the way it feels to miss you?

Missing you, missing you, oh oh

Missing you, missing you


[Bridge]

I trace your birthmark

It's the first thing I'd misplace

This crowded head of mine

It's only a matter of time

I trace your birthmark

So there's somewhere you can stay

Your skin so vivid, so I think that I'll be fine


[Chorus]

When your name doesn't hurt to say

And I think about you less each passing day

When I can't feel your weight

Will I miss the way it feels to miss you?

Missing you, missing you, oh oh

Missing you, missing you, oh
