Still Missing You

I see the world keep moving on

People laughing with their dads

I smile alone, but deep inside

I'm breaking over what I never had

You left a silence in my life

A story I can't read through

And every time I try to ask

You'd shut the door, I'd lose the truth

I wonder who you would have been

Would you be proud of me today?

Sometimes I feel you in the wind

Sometimes it just fades away

'Cause I'm still missing you

More than I ever meant to do

I'm stronger now, but honestly

Some hurt still cuts right through

I try to grow, I try to heal

But something's empty in my chest

If you were here, would I feel home?

Only God knows the rest

Yeah, I'm still missing you

There are nights I talk to God

Asking why you couldn't stay

Why the questions stay behind

And why your love felt far away

But I keep walking through the pain

Learning things you never taught

Trying hard to understand

The man you were, the man you're not

I wonder if you'd hold my hand

If you could see what I've been through

And every win and every fall

Feels like I'm searching still for you

'Cause I'm still missing you

More than I ever meant to do

I'm stronger now, but honestly

Some hurt still cuts right through

I try to grow (grow), I try to heal (heal)

But something's empty in my chest

If you were here (here), but I feel whole (whole)

Only God knows the rest

Yeah, I'm still missing you

Sometimes I lay the memories down

Sometimes they rise back up again

Oh yeah

I fight the ache, I breathe it out

And I feel like that small child again

There's healing here, but when there's a bruise

Special love was meant to fill

And even when I rise above, your absence linger still
