I missed your call because I was in a boardroom

Full of old men guessing what the kids are getting into

There was a cardboard cutout of a cowboy in the corner

Pointing his gun at my face

I don't belong here

Nobody does

Except maybe those old men, collecting dust

Why am I not wherever you are?

There is no distance that wouldn't be too far

Even on opposite sides of the room

I am orbiting you.

So come out, come out, wherever you are

I miss you, I miss you, I miss you in my arms.

I wanna be that man on main street with a megaphone

Screaming obscenities to the toddlers and their scandalized moms

I wanna scream from the bottom of my lungs

I wanna scream my throat raw

And if that means I never sing again

At least I'll know I went out with a bang

Screaming my favorite things about you

Screaming your name, your name, your name.

So come out, come out, wherever you are

I miss you, I miss you, I miss you in my arms

Come out, come out, there's no need to hide

I want you, I want you, I want you by my side.

Waking up in a new city every day

Makes me believe more and more that they're all the same

It's just a pharmacy, coffee shop, bookstore, and bank

And a tourist attraction that most locals hate.

I hike up a hill where they say there's a view

'cause the sky around 5 might remind me of you

There's a couple divorcées on a bad first date

And an elderly couple with nothing to say.

I used to think that'd be the worst

To grow old and run out of words

Now I have seen some incredible things

I could never describe if I tried.

So come out, come out, wherever you are

I miss you, I miss you, I miss you in my arms

Come out, come out, there's no need to hide

I want you, I want you, I want you by my side

Come on, come on, I'm ready for you

I can wait, I can wait, but I don't want to.
