Missing The War lyrics

Song information

Artist: Ben Folds Five
Album: Whatever & Ever Amen

Lyrics

All is quiet his tired eyes
See figures jotted down
And clothes all strewn around
The bedroom floor
Now nothing's adding up
And nothing's making sense
She's sleeping like a baby
She doesn't know he wasn't
Meant for this

I'm missing the war
I'm missing the war all night
Missing the war
I'm missing the war

He drove home again
Pissed and beaten
It's really no big deal
It happens all the time
It's no big deal

I'm missing the war
I'm missing the war all night
Missing the war
I'm missing the war
Till beads of sunlight hit
Me in the morning (and I forget)

So much time so little to say

Time may fly
And dreams may die
The shaking voice that tells
Him go
Still thinks he might
He knows he won't
I'm missing the war
Missing the war all night
Missing the war
