Ben Folds - Missing the War lyrics

[Ben Folds - Missing the War 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 (ba ba ba ba)
I'm missing the war all night (ba ba ba ba)
Missing the war (ba ba ba ba)
I'm missing the war (ahh)
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 (ba ba ba ba)
I'm missing the war all night (ba ba ba ba)
Missing the war (ba ba ba ba)
I'm missing the war
Till beads of sunlight hit me in the morning

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 (ba ba ba ba)
I'm missing the war all night (ba ba ba ba)
Missing the war (ba ba ba ba)
I'm missing the war (ahh)

(Ahh) missing the war (ahh)
Missing the war (ahh)
