Verse 1)
We got our own lives now, different towns, different days
Trying to build our futures, but some things never change
’Cause I still feel the quiet when the nights get long
And I think about the place where we all came from
(Pre-Chorus)
And I try, I try
To play it cool, to say I’m fine
But this heart, this heart
Still reaches back across the time
(Chorus / Drop)
I miss you like the echoes of our youth
All the laughter that we swore we’d never lose
Growing up just means we learn to hide the ache
But I feel it, I feel it
When the memories hit like waves
Oh, I miss you
Yeah, I miss you
And it hits me like an Illenium drop
When the beat falls out and everything just stops
(Verse 2)
Life moves fast now — bills and dreams in the way
But I’d trade a thousand moments just to have one more day
Of us all in the kitchen, talking loud, messing around
Back when we didn’t know how far we’d scatter out
(Pre-Chorus)
And I try, I try
To keep it light, to not rewind
But this heart, this heart
Still lives in moments frozen in time
(Chorus / Drop)
I miss you like the echoes of our youth
All the laughter that we swore we’d never lose
Growing up just means we learn to hide the ache
But I feel it, I feel it
When the memories hit like waves
Oh, I miss you
Yeah, I miss you
And it hits me like an Illenium drop
When the beat falls out and everything just stops
(Bridge)
We’ve grown, we’ve changed
But love don’t fade
No matter how far we stray
You’re still my home
Where I belong
And I’m never letting go
(Final Chorus / Drop)
I miss you like the echoes of our youth
Reaching out for something time can’t take from us
Every heartbeat sounds like footsteps calling home
I’m coming, I’m coming
No matter how far I have to go
Oh, I miss you
Yeah, I miss you
’Cause even grown up, I’m still yours
And that hits deep when the world goes quiet once more
