What Did You Miss lyrics

What did you miss when the days went missing?
What did you wish for when the world went dark?
Streetlights still switched on in the evening
The sun still performed its daily march

What did you do with all those hours?
How did you fill up all that space?
Spring still arrived with all of its flowers
As you tilted a screen towards someone's face

I want to stay out late in crowded dive bar
Where the windows steam up from the inside
I want to dance with my friends 'til I can't stand up
Like a champ face down at ringside

What did you see when the days turned shapeless?
Dreaming of distances bеneath the blue
Walking for milеs alone and aimless
Trying to recall what made you you

We used to meet at the end of my street
Ready to jump right in
Watching city lights shimmer in the heat
Cold beers in our hands

Or out on the porch underneath the trees
In the shadow of a neighbor's light
A buzz and a glow, our voices low
Confiding in the night
How did you feel when you felt so lonely?
That you never believed you'd be whole again
Autumn still shone so gold and holy
And all we could do was remember when

I've been walking in circles for so long
Unwinding the mystery
I've been writing it down song by song
As a personal history
A personal history
A personal history
