I called you up to apologize,
Your mother said I just missed you.
She said you left with tears in your eyes
From all the wrong I did you.

I just missed you. I was one teardrop too late,
Too stubborn to see loneliness would be my fate.
If only I'd caught you I know you'd still be mine.
I want you to come back but I just missed you.

I went to find you at our favorite place,
And there I saw her with you.
She wiped your tears, put a smile on your face,
and then I saw her kiss you.

I just missed you, and you fell into her arms,
Where she could console you, and keep you with her charms.
If only I'd called you just a minute or two sooner,
But time's not on my side, and I just missed you.

The leaves have changed and the winter's coming on,
And still I wish I was with you.
If ever you wonder what I did all summer long,
Well, baby, I just missed you.
Oh, I just missed you.
Don't you know? I just missed you.

(I missed you, and your never coming back. No, your never coming back. I just missed you).
