Remember back at Ryder High
Wishing on stars in the Texas sky
I got your name tattooed
Across my heart, how could we lose?

Back in black when we were hand in hand
Two young kids like Jack and Diane
Falling at the speed of light
And burning up never felt so right

So why I don't miss you?
Tell me what am I supposed to do
After all the shit that we've been through
I can't feel a thing

Maybe I was too high
Maybe I just sobered up too soon
And you're still on the dark side of the moon
And always on my mind
So why don't I miss you?

So many nights we drove around
King and queen of the whole damn town
Voted 'Most likely to succeed'
We were everybody's meant to be

Burned out plans to take over the world
Did I f**k it up or did we just get bored
Of losing at the same old game?
We had our 15 minutes of fame

We took it all the way
You can't say we didn't try

So why I don't miss you?
Tell me what am I supposed to do
After all the shit that we've been through
I can't feel a thing

Maybe I was too high
Maybe I just sobered up too soon
And you're still on the dark side of the moon
And always on my mind
So why don't I miss you?

Why don't I miss the way
You laugh at everything I say?
You mom's apple pie
Always blew me away

It's funny how I always write
The same old song
I wonder if you ever sing along with me
Sing along with me

So why I don't miss you?
Tell me what am I supposed to do
After all the shit that we've been through
I can't feel a thing

Maybe I was too high
Maybe I sobered up too soon
And you're still on the dark side of the moon
And you're always on my mind
So why don't I miss you?

(Burned out plans to take over the world)
(I got your name tattooed)
Why don't I miss you?
(Did I f**k it up or did we just get bored?
(Across my heart, how could we lose?

Why don't I miss you?
(So many nights we drove around)
(But we were losing at the same old game)
Why don't I miss you?
(King and queen of the whole damn town)
(We had our 15 minutes of fame)
Why don't I miss you?
