You're trying to reach me, you're bringing me back from the dead
Do we speak the same language if I misinterpreted what you said?
I start to worry when I'm getting too happy
You say I'm crazy but it doesn't distract me
And if I never get to say it again
I'm gonna miss you when I'm gone
When I'm all wrapped up and I'm looking back on my days
In a hotel room with a view into outer space
I'm gonna miss you when I'm getting too happy
I'm gonna miss you when I'm gone
I'm gonna miss you when the phone don't ring
And the birds don't sing
In the middle of my heart, there's always a place where you land
I see in the future, I see it in the palm of your hand
I get so heavy with the world on my shoulders
I can't help thinking what we'll be when we're older
And if I never get to say it again
I'm gonna miss you when I'm gone
When I'm all wrapped up and I'm looking back on my days
In a hotel room with a view into outer space
I'm gonna miss you when I'm gone
I'm gonna miss you when I'm gone
I'm gonna miss you when I'm gone
I'm gonna miss you when I'm gone
I'm going to miss you when the phone don't ring
And the birds don't sing
When I'm winding down and I'm staring into the fire
Getting hard in here and the smoke is burning my eyes
I'm going to miss you when I'm gone
I'm going to miss you when I'm gone
I'm going to miss you when the phone don't ring
And the birds don't sing
And I'm feeling alive
I've got my arms up and wide
And I'm ready to fly
Ready to fly
You gotta go where you gotta go
To see the light that you know
You're ready to fly
You're ready to fly
You're ready to fly

Cause you're my ABC
You're my ecstasy
You're my higher power
You're my finest hour
You're my universe
You're my magic words
And I'm ready to fly
I'm going to miss you when I'm gone
When I'm all right
And I'm looking back on my days
In a hotel room
With you into outer space
I'm going to miss you when I'm gone
I'm going to miss you when I'm gone
I'm going to miss you when the phone don't ring
And the birds don't sing
When the phone don't ring
And the birds don't sing
And the birds don't sing
