Lips I Miss — DaddyLove

Intro

I still taste you on the air
Like a ghost that lingers there
The silence calls your name at night
And I reach for what's not right beside me

Verse 1

The morning light falls on your side of the bed
I chase the warmth you left behind
There's a hollow in the quiet where your laughter used to live
And I carry it like something I can't find
Your fingerprints are on the coffee cup
Your perfume in the sleeve of my old coat
I've been reading back our messages at 2 a.m.
Just to hear your voice inside my throat

Pre-Chorus

And I don't need much
Just the soft return of your touch
The way you'd breathe against my jaw
Before you'd pull me close and pause

Chorus

I miss your kiss on my lips
The slow and deliberate way
You'd cup my face in your hands
And take the ache away
I miss your kiss on my lips
Like a language only we spoke
A mother tongue of skin and warmth
The sweetest thing I ever broke

Bridge

Instrumental

Distance is a kind of hunger
That no ordinary meal can cure
I've been full of everything but you
And starving all the more

Final Chorus

Nearly Spoken

I miss your kiss... on my lips
Just the slow... deliberate way
You'd cup my face... and hold the world still
And take... the ache... away
I miss your kiss on my lips
That language only we knew
A mother tongue of skin and quiet
God, I'm homesick... for you
