This is Kelsea Ballerini’s I Miss Me More. It’s such a great breakup song. Such a powerful message to all women out there! One of my favorite break up quotes is “If you start to miss me, remember I didn’t walk away, you let me go.” I love the message that this song sends out. It’s not about how much you miss your ex-boyfriend but how much we give up of ourselves to be in that relationship in the first place. I don’t know why we do that as women, but so many of us do it time and time again. We get lost, we lose ourselves and we allow ourselves to be all about him. It’s okay to be in love, but we need to be true to ourselves. We can’t lose who we are to be with another person because that isn’t healthy. That’s not any way to live. If he really is the one, then he’ll want to be with you, THE REAL YOU, warts and all.
I Miss Me More
I retired my red lipstick ’cause you said you didn’t like it
I didn’t wear my high heel shoes
‘Cause I couldn’t be taller than you
I didn’t wanna lose my friends, but now it’s hard to even find them
It’s what you wanted, ain’t it?
It’s what you wanted
I thought I’d miss you (when it ended)
I thought it hurt me (but it didn’t)
I thought I’d miss you
I thought I’d miss you
But I miss me more
I miss my own beat, to my own snare drum
I miss me more
Miss my own sheets in the bed I made up
I forgot I had dreams, I forgot I had wings
Forgot who I was before I ever kissed you
Yeah, I thought I’d miss you
But I miss me more (I miss me more)
I put on my old records that I hid in the back of the closet
And I turn them up to ten
And then I played them all again
I found my independence
Can’t believe I ever lost it
What you wanted, ain’t it?
It’s what you wanted
I thought I’d miss you (when it ended)
I thought it hurt me (but it didn’t)
I thought I’d miss you
Yeah, I thought I’d miss you
But I miss me more
I miss my own beat, to my own snare drum
(I miss me more)
Miss my own sheets in the bed I made up
I forgot I had dreams, I forgot I had wings
Forgot who I was before I ever kissed you
Yeah, I thought I’d miss you
But I miss me more (I miss me more)
I thought I’d miss you
I thought it hurt me
And I’d wanna kiss you
I thought I’d miss you
But I miss me more
I miss my own beat, to my own snare drum
(I miss me more)
Miss my own sheets in the bed I made up
I forgot I had dreams, I forgot I had wings
Forgot who I was before I ever kissed you
And I thought I’d miss you
But I miss me more
(I miss me more)
(I miss me more)
(I miss me more)
