In French, you don’t really say “I miss you.” You say “tu me manques,” which is closer to “you are missing from me.”
I love that. “You are missing from me.” You are a part of me, you are essential to my being. You are like a limb, or an organ, or blood. I cannot function without you.

And this will be the first time in a week
That I’ll talk to you
And I can’t speak
Spent three whole days since I’ve had sleep
‘Cause I dream of his lips on your cheek
And I got the point that I should leave you alone
But we both know I’m not that strong
And I miss the lips that made me fly
