I promised you I’d clean the kitchen
when you cooked my favorite meals
I promised you I’d pay more attention
to your old cat and how he feels
And I stopped trying to scare you
when you watched those late, late shows
chorus:
I miss you
There’s not a day that
I don’t think about you
I miss you
My favorite memories are Sundays
Sleeping late and making love
I’d punch the channels
and you’d read the paper
all about the trouble the stars are in
And the smell of fresh made coffee
And your fingers upon my skin
chorus:
I miss you
There’s not a day that
I don’t think about you
I miss you
bridge:
Some people talk about how love can conquer all
But they don’t tell you what to do when Death comes to call
I locked the doors and I latched the windows
I put the boxes in the car
There on the sidewalk we carved our initials
Who’d ‘ve thought kids could come this far
And as the past fades in the rear view mirror
Your old cat and me drive away
chorus:
I miss you
There’s not a day that I don’t think about you
I miss you
