Pretty girls, they have it easy
Living the strawberry, kiwi life, ah
And me, I just fill up on coffee
And let the caffeine do the talking, oh

I'll always miss you and I'll always wish
You'd been mine

If I was an English teacher
I probably could get you to dance with me, yeah
'Cause Robert Frost is in your wallet
The road less, whatever you call it, oh

I'll always miss you and I'll always wish
You'd been mine

And, love, I'm afraid that after tonight
There won't be a way to see you
But just for the sake of our storyline
I'll wait a day to break the bad news, oh

So, I'll buy myself a cheap apartment
And I'll buy my heart a secret compartment, oh, yeah
And when your memory starts to surface
I'll toast to mistakes, made on purpose, yeah, oh

I'll always miss you and I'll always wish
You'd been mine

Well, it takes an idealist to know one
And me and you, we had that going for us, yeah
And we the dreamers chase forever
So at least in that we'll be together, oh

I guess
I'll always miss you and I'll always wish
You'd been mine
Yeah, I'll always miss you and I'll always wish
You'd been mine
