In this emotive track, Ray Dalton explores the vulnerability and fear associated with falling in love after experiencing heartbreak. The lyrics convey a preemptive defense mechanism where the singer pleads with a potential lover to spare him the pain of attachment, suggesting they end things before they even begin. This protective stance highlights a deep-seated fear of emotional investment due to past scars. The repetition of "don't make me miss you" underscores the internal conflict between desiring closeness and avoiding further emotional damage, illustrating the complexities of seeking new relationships while still healing from old wounds.
Don't Make Me Miss You
Lyrics
With a smile like yours I lay down my walls and just fall so easily
With a face like yours I can lose myself and go out my mind
It's not fair, I'm scared you'll leave me, yeah oh yeah
So if you see my on the side, please just walk on by
I don't want you to let me down, tasting tears of a clown
Please don't look my way and turn around and say "Hi"
'Cause sooner later you would say goodbye
So before we start, let's just say that it's over
Before I say those words and you give me the shoulder
Don't want you to leave, but it's best if you don't make me miss you
With those puppy eyes you could tell me lies and I'd just believe you
With those angel kisses, daydreaming of us in a cathedral
I swear in your hands I'm putty, oh
So if you see my on the side, please just walk on by
I don't want you to let me down, tasting tears of a clown
Please don't look my way and turn around and say "Hi"
'Cause sooner later you would say goodbye
So before we start, let's just say that it's over
Before I say those words and you give me the shoulder
Don't want you to leave, but it's best if you don't make me miss you
I only have one heart and it's been broken before
And it just can't take more fixing anymore
Don't want you to leave, but it's best if you don't make me miss you
Ooh, la-la-la-la
Ooh, la-la-la-la
Don't make me miss you, oh yeah
Before we start
So before we start, let's just say that it's over
Before I say those words and you give me the shoulder
Don't want you to leave, but it's best if you don't make me miss you
I only have one heart and it's been broken before
And it just can't take more fixing anymore
Don't want you to leave, but it's best if you don't make me miss you
