about

It is wise to acquaint oneself with the ache of missing someone and notice that it can make you feel more alive. This song started out as a poem and was pretty much plopped word for word onto a melody. It has no chorus or bridge, just consecutive A part, B part, C part and I think that's cool.

lyrics

it’s only been a little while but i miss you
Tell you i’m gonna try and brave this blues
because it hangs in the air and underneath the eaves
and it hides in the branches and it rustles in the leaves

I taste it in the water and in the food
Read it in the headlines in the news
It says to run and find ya because the world is pain
but i’ll stay here and feel it and i’ll feel you just the same
I don’t wanna forget my name

Holy Moly melancholy don’t skirt around (Don’t skirt around)
If you wanna speak to me just write it down (Just write it down)
Love’s a bird alighting on a branch outside your window
Catch it and the bird might stay but the love will go (The love will go)

I’ve gotta practice missin’ you, cuz you might disappear
I’ve gotta practice lovin’ you, when you’re not here
I’ve gotta practice missin’ you, cuz you might disappear
I’ve gotta practice lovin’ you, when you’re not here
