Young, Chris - Drowning Lyrics






Still got your number in my phone.
And even though you don't know I listen
I still call and wait 'til the tone
Just to hear you saying, "Leave a message."

Since you've been gone I've had to find
Different ways to grieve.
There's days that I don't even want it on my mind,
But tonight I'm weak.

So, I'm gonna pull out pictures, ones with you in 'em,
Laugh and cry a little while reminiscing
By myself.
I can't help
That all I think about is
How you were taken way too soon.
It ain't the same here without you.
I gotta say, missin' you comes in waves,
And tonight I'm drowning.

Yeah, I know you're in a better place,
And one day I'll see you again,
But it's killing me we can't be face to face.
I miss my best friend.

So, tonight I'm gonna pull out pictures, ones with you in 'em,
Laugh and cry a little while reminiscing
By myself.
I can't help
That all I think about is
How you were taken way too soon.
It ain't the same here without you.
I gotta say, missin' you comes in waves,
And tonight I'm drowning.

Yeah, tonight I'm drowning.

I know it's a part of life,
But I wasn't ready to say goodbye.

So, tonight I'm gonna pull out pictures, ones with you in 'em,
Laugh and cry a little while reminiscing
By myself.
I can't help
That all I think about is
How you were taken way too soon.
It ain't the same here without you.
I gotta say, missin' you comes in waves,
And tonight I'm drowning.

Yeah, tonight I'm drowning.

    This song is on point! I lost my best friend a little over a year ago, she was murdered by her husband, and it's just been a crazy time since she left because it was due to a mental health issue, and her husband is my husband's best friend. This song is just so perfect at describing what it's like to deal with it. Thank you tho who wrote this song.

    My uncle (who was the closest thing to a dad I had) passed away on my birthday in 2018. I had to deal with my first birthday and the anniversary of his death last year. It was incredibly hard. I don't even want to think about it this year as well. He was there for me through all of my hardest and best parts of life. I got married and had a baby last year and he should have been here for both of those moments. I miss him everyday.
