LYRICS
The trees are swaying out the window and you’re not with me today
You’re with him and that’s okay. That’s okay.
I hope you’re running round in circles, hope you’re laughing till you drop
I hope you’re feeling safe, I hope you’re feeling loved
The days are longer when you’re not here, I’ve been staring at the skyWondering what I used to do with all my time
You’re a universe of starlight bursting out of every seam
And the house is so damn quiet when you leave
You’ve been asking lots of questions lately, trying to figure out
Why the endings in your books don’t match ours
And it breaks my heart trying to find some words you’ll understand
Cos baby nothing about this was in the plan
All that I can tell you is a complicated truth
I’ll always love your daddy, cos together we made you
From the moment I first met him I knew everything would change
Your daddy woke my heart up in the kitchen that day
He wore no metal armour, rode a vesper not a horse
But I’d never felt so seen and so adored
We loved each other’s faulty parts, we kissed each other’s wounds
Till one day we were opening them too
And I know your books don’t end like that, I know it’s hard to take
A promise is a promise you say
And all that I can tell you is a complicated truth
I’ll always love your daddy
But now our love is something new
Now I’m walking past your empty bedroom, turning off the lights
And I’m hoping that he’s tucked you in tight
Cos I haven’t had the answers lately
Haven’t known what to say
When you ask me why love runs away
And all that I can give you are these complicated truths
Sometimes happiness is the hardest thing to choose
But I’ll always love your daddy, cos together we made you

My husband moved out a year ago today. This video popped up on my feed and it completely floored me. Your songs have spoken to me at so many points in my life and this one really hit home. Our situation may be a little different but I know that feeling of trying to explain the unexplainable to a small person who just wants to understand and knowing that you cant give them the one thing they really want. Sending you love and solidarity. Thank you for sharing these pieces of you that speak so deeply to others.

If only every child had a parent who could write a beautiful song to cover every emotional situation. Unbelievably beautiful song.

My wife and I split when our daughter was 4. This song brought me right back there. The video may as well have been audio only as I couldn’t see it through the tears. Once when I was bringing her back to her Mum’s she told that we don’t have enough time; she was five. Breaks my heart even now. She’ll be 20 in October. All we want for our children is to be happy, healthy and loved. Beautiful song! Thank you.

i was a fan back from the start but fell away, .... been a swiftie for years, but this album is missy's tortured poets, and it's so brilliant in its poetry. now i just feel sad having missed all the years of her music, will try to catch up because i'm sure this album really hits harder for fans. but apart from that, the songs here really are breaking some new ground that is rarely touched.

I'll soon be having this conversation with my youngest daughter so this one really struck a nerve. Another fantastic song by one of the best song writers of the last 50 years

I don't even have kids, I'm not married, and I haven’t been divorced. But this song brought me to tears... That's the power of Missy's song writing. Just amazing! Been a fan since Sound of White ❤

Had the chance to see her in Sydney just recently and this one had my friend and I holding back our tears, didn't work of course. It's such a beautiful song, I can't wait for the new album.

@ThereseMcLean 2 месяца назад

Oh Missy, saw you perform this live last week at the State Theatre in Sydney and it made me cry then and again now. I'm preparing myself to visit my mum's house for the first time since she died 18 months ago and I'm imagining the "walking past your empty bedroom" ...

@catherineconway8142 2 месяца назад

I was so lucky to be at this concert in St Kilda! This song is so beautiful, only time I've ever been in tears at a concert. Love your music so much Missy, thank you for sharing such a personal story with all of us, I'm sure there are many who have gone through this same tough experience who would have felt so seen through this song

I relate sadly, and it’s a hurtful hard thing when things don’t go as you dreamed they would but had no control over.

I was there in Frankston back in March and the Palais in May to hear this live and I have been waiting for you to release it. Just an amazing song with such true lyrics that resonate with so many. You are the soundtrack to our lives Missy and we are blessed to have you share your truth so beautifully with us, Thank you x

Just WOW, been listening to Chappell Roan a lot lately and she reminds me of so many great artists, one of which is Missy in terms or song construction & lyrical economy as well as vocal technique. Along with Vanessa & Delta, her songwriting just gets better with every year.

Watched this in awe in Brisbane & with tears streaming missy. So beautiful & relatable. Thank you for sharing. My beautiful angels were 8 months & 3 yo when it happened. It’s been 2 years & what a wild ride. Soo amazing to see you returning home to yourself again missy! Thank you for 20 years of validating songs that help sooth the heartaches.

As always, nailed it! It’s this heart-wrenching and hearing your words reminds me of how hard it’s been with my kids (who were older than yours but equally confused by the adult stuff). Thank you 🙏
