  • I knew I’d run into you
    Someday out there somewhere
    You’d smile and talk for a while
    Like there was nothing ever really there

    And you act like you don’t see this pretty girl I’ve got with me
    You finally get around to talk about ‘oh did you miss me’

    I missed you on your weekend Whiskey
    Getting crazy at the bar
    I missed you running late on Sundays
    Sliding in as the preacher starts
    I missed you at my sister’s wedding
    I’d be lying if I said you didn’t cross my mind
    But I’ve found the love of my life
    I think I missed you just right

    In a crazy way I should thank you
    For making me move on
    I was surprised with your goodbye
    But now I’m grateful that you’re gone

    I’ve found the one that makes the mistakes I made make perfect sense
    She’ll ask me if I think about you every now and then

    I missed you on your weekend Whiskey
    Getting crazy at the bar
    I missed you running late on Sundays
    Sliding in as the preacher starts
    I missed you at my sister’s wedding
    I’d be lying if I said you didn’t cross my mind
    I’ve found the love of my life
    I think I missed you just right

    No I’m not sad or angry like I was
    I’m just in love

    I missed you on your weekend Whiskey
    Getting crazy at the bar
    I missed you running late on Sundays
    Sliding in as the preacher starts
    I missed you at my sister’s wedding
    I’d be lying if I said you didn’t cross my mind
    But, I’ve found the love of my life
    I think I missed you just right
    Yeah I missed you just right
    I think I missed you just right Writer/s: BOBBY OLEN PINSON, TOBY KEITH COVEL

  • Paul from IdahoGreat song! This is exactly how I feel about my high school sweetheart who I dated for over three years and my wife who I met six years later. Although I had several relationships inbetween the two I never could get over my first love until the day I met my wife. This song and Garth Brooks' Unanswered Prays are two perfect songs that match my feelings for first love and my true love. I totally missed her just right.
  • Kermitt - 2tts from Northern GirlMiss you on my weekend and therefore my weekend is this. See you soon. Bring laptop for business security elements for signatures to move forward - not whiskey girl to gents world
