Green-Brown Ocean Eyes

[Verse 1]
There’s her truck in the same old spot
But it ain’t my boots by her side
He leans in where I used to stand
Yeah, that’s his hand in hers tonight
I just sit in this parking lot
Let your laugh run through my mind
Like you just walked out my front door
Sayin’ you’d be back in no time
[Chorus]
I still miss your smell in my T-shirt
That Sunday soap and summer rain
Miss that long brunette hair on my shoulder
Tracing my name
Miss your kiss on my bad days
The way you’d pull me back in twice
What I miss the most are those green-brown
Green-brown ocean eyes
Yeah, I’m alright, but I still drown
In your green-brown ocean eyes
[Verse 2]
You deserve that small-town dream
White dress, porch swing, and a ring
If he gives you what I couldn’t give
I hope you get every little thing
So I’ll raise this beer to the both of you
To the girl I had to lose to find
That loving you means letting go
Even while you haunt my nights
[Chorus]
I still miss your smell in my T-shirt
That Sunday soap and summer rain
Miss that long brunette hair on my shoulder
Tracing my name
Miss your kiss on my bad days
The way you’d pull me back in twice
What I miss the most are those green-brown
Green-brown ocean eyes
Yeah, I’m alright, but I still drown
In your green-brown ocean eyes
[Bridge]
I don’t wish him gone, I don’t wish you back
I just wish I didn’t ache like that (oh, oh)
You’re a chapter that I can’t rewrite
But I still read you every night
[Chorus]
I still miss your smell in my T-shirt
That Sunday soap and summer rain
Miss that long brunette hair on my shoulder
Tracing my name
Miss your kiss on my bad days
The way you’d pull me back in twice
What I miss the most are those green-brown
Green-brown ocean eyes
Yeah, I’m alright, but I still drown
In your green-brown ocean eyes
