The Henningsens’ “I Miss You” was written by Aaron, Clara, and Brian Henningsen, the family trio that makes up The Henningsens. They co-wrote the lyrics with a friend, Don Poythress.
Clara sings the song with emotion, as if she is missing someone deeply in her personal life, while her father and brother play a steady-beat melody. The song allows for some interpretation, though. Some audiences could view the lyrics as missing a loved one perhaps from death. Others could understand the song as missing a relationship with boyfriend or girlfriend.
Either way, The Henningsens made sure the lyrics remained strong, relatable, and powerful…as they do with the rest of their songs.
“I Miss You” Lyrics:
I miss the simple conversations
I miss the silence in between
I miss the clatter in the kitchen
It always seemed to help me sleep
But most of all, I miss you
I miss the way that you could move me
With just a corner of your smile
The gentle way that you could save me
With just a want to in your eyes
But most of all, I miss you
I know I drew a line in the sand that I can’t cross back over
I know baby you’ll be fine
But if you don’t mind I’ll never recover
Never recover
I miss the way you made me better
I miss the touch that made me melt
I miss being wrapped up in you, baby
Instead of always wrapped up in myself
But most of all, I miss you
I know I drew a line in the sand that I can’t cross back over
I know baby you’ll be fine
But if you don’t mind I’ll never recover
Never recover
I miss the simple conversations
I miss the silence in between
I miss that little bit of hope
You might be coming back to me
But most of all, most of all
Most of all, I miss you
