[Intro]
Down to the core, baby, don’t you know that I miss you?
Down to the core, baby, don’t you know that I miss you?
Down to the core, baby, don’t you know that I miss you?
Know that I miss you
Know that I miss you

[Verse 1]
You got deleted down my contacts
‘Cause I know I’ll try to contact you
When I left I didn’t look back, look back, oooh
You went and cheated with another man
And there’s nothing left for me to do
When I left I didn’t look back
But you ain’t in the past, ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
When I’m out, people ask me where you at?
And I gotta go around the story back
Mike, Joe keep it short, skip some facts
All the while I’m going back

[Chorus]
‘Cause I got to pretend I don’t miss you, miss you
‘Cause I got too much pride, that’s an issue, issue, ooh
Gonna get some lonesome times I know I can’t compromise
But I gotta pretend I don’t miss you, miss you, ooh
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, baby, baby
(Down to the core, baby, don’t you know that I miss you?)
I don’t wanna feel this way
Oh, baby, baby
(Down to the core, baby, don’t you know that I miss you?)
I don’t wanna feel this way
Oh, baby, baby
(Down to the core, baby, don’t you know that I miss you?)
I don’t wanna feel this way
(know that I miss you)

[Verse 2]
Oh, so you mad I got a new chick
You try to call and I won’t pick up
She’s looking better than you ever did
And when you see me, girl, you know I was’up

[Pre-Chorus]
When I’m out, people ask me where you at?
And I gotta go around the story back
Mike, Joe keep it short, skip some facts
All the while I’m going back

[Chorus]
‘Cause I got to pretend I don’t miss you, miss you
‘Cause I got too much pride, that’s an issue, issue, ooh
Gonna get some lonesome times I know I can’t compromise
But I gotta pretend I don’t miss you, miss you, ooh
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, baby, baby
(Down to the core, baby, don’t you know that I miss you?)
I don’t wanna feel this way
Oh, baby, baby
(Down to the core, baby, don’t you know that I miss you?)
I don’t wanna feel this way
Oh, baby, baby
(Down to the core, baby, don’t you know that I miss you?)
I don’t wanna feel this way
(know that I miss you)
Feel this way
Feel this way
