Miss You Til (Bonus Track)

(album: Cinematic - 2013)

I end up dialling your digits (Digits)
Miss a beat at the sound of the ringtone (The ringtone)
I try to brush off the distance (The distance)
With a wave and a smile from the window (The window)
And I could wish things different (Different)
But still I go (I go)
So I'll miss you till I'm with you (I'll miss you till)
Till I'm on my way home (I'll miss you till) (Yo)

And it's like
Fear of missing out blew the rear-view mirror down
Keep the visits short, keeping the key in the ignition
Motor clicking over, vroom, vroom, peace, I'm out
With the volume up, with the windows down
Memories [?] to build relationships with
Solid foundations now seem shaky ground
Since I made the climb from bedroom to headliners
Less time with the boys, more with the crowd
And that's how it is now, that's fine with me
I just hate seeing mate's kids grow up through an iPhone screen
Bittersweet to sacrifice those scenes
In the name of the larger picture, but I don't dream
These days I live it, repaid the difference
[?] the stage, my place of business
So I try to savour it for each day I'm missing
From my home to the globe, never mind the distance, I

And I could wish things different (Different)
But still I go (I go)
So I'll miss you till I'm with you (I'll miss you till)
Till I'm on my way home (I'll miss you till)

With my mind on my business, try to keep quiet
Public persona, private life private
'Cause tender hearts don't survive this climate
So songs sing for me, keep prying eyes blinded, but
Sometimes it's like "What am I in love with?"
Sometimes it's more "What am I in love for?"
Promising my girl that I'd never jump ship
With my suitcase, waiting by the front door
The world spins and her hurt don't quit, man
Two lessons, and I learnt both quick, man
Distance and hard work don't mix
And there's some things three little words won't fix
And she deserves more than I can spare or have here
Deserves more than I am, yeah, she worth more than that
So let the light shine in through the cracks
Yeah, it's flawed, but there's still something perfect in that, and I

So I'll miss you till I'm with you (I'll miss you till)
Till I'm on my way home (I'll miss you till) (And it's that)

Fear of missing out, it keeps me on the go
It's how I roll, brother, each to their own
Look, it took me so far, but for each path [?]
My thoughts never apart from my people back home
But the road's calling, I'd be crazy not to answer
You never know, there might only me one more
So I'm up, early bird every chance, ha
With my suitcase, waiting by the front door
Ready for another trip, another tour
Airports, lobby calls, sound checks, encores
Hope I possess perspective when the whole thing falls
To appreciate it's crazy that it happened at all
It's ever closer to when you won't know or won't care
Till then, I share my life and lay my soul bare
Sleep in the sky, living on a hope and a prayer
That my future's out there on the road somewhere

I know that they say that you can't be
Everywhere at once
So I send these words of my love to you
And—
