There've been times where all I wanted to do was pick up the phone and call you
To see if you were thinking the same thoughts you thought when you decided we're through
But knowing you the way I do no way would I think to change your mind
Wondering if maybe your perspective was the result of you being blind.

Oh! I miss you!—I bet that you can't tell
Oh! I miss you!—I hope you're doing well

You wanted my commitment—my gut said no—I searched my heart and never found why
I searched my garden, searched my basement, searched the earth and sky
The answer was always no and I told you so
The hardest thing is to say goodbye—I hated seeing you go

Oh! I miss you!—I bet that you can't tell
Oh! I miss you!—my lovely Jezebel

I grieved my loss more than I let on and did my best to keep it all inside
It poured out the instant I shoved it down—bam!—it came tearing outside
I rode the wave of tears to the shore, the sun breaking out a new day
Open my heart and let all the pain in—now I feel everything in a brand new way

Oh! I miss you!—but now I'm doing well
Oh! I miss you!—my lovely Jezebel
Oh! I miss you!—but now I'm doing well
Oh! I miss you!—my lovely Jezebel
Oh! I miss you!—I bet that you can't tell
Oh! I miss you!—my lovely Jezebel
