I Missed Me Too — Nora (Vol. 9)

Everyone kept telling me they missed me, and somewhere between the terracotta pots and the jade clipping in the jam jar, I realized I missed me too. This is a winter golden-hour song about coming home to yourself the slow way — no grand arrival, no parade, just watering the small things until they grow. New leaves never ask permission, and neither did I.

Lyrics

[Verse]

Winter sun leans low on the balcony rail
Terracotta holds the warmth of the day
A jade clipping roots in a jam jar
I turn the soil and let the quiet stay

[Pre-Chorus]

Your note said, “We missed you”
I breathe on the glass, then smile

[Chorus]

New leaves never ask permission
Crooked stems still find the light
I missed me too
And I’m home now

[Verse]

The dented can lets water fall slow
The plant-shop bell rings soft at the door
In borrowed sleeves, I brush misted glass
Last low sun rests on each green leaf

[Pre-Chorus]

I was gone from my own name
Now I let it open like spring

[Chorus]

New leaves never ask permission
Crooked stems still find the light
I missed me too
And I’m home now

[Instrumental Bridge]

— the piano plays —

[Final Chorus]

New leaves never ask permission
Crooked stems still find the light
I missed me too
I’m home now

[Outro]

I turn the jar toward the sun
And let the small leaves grow
