[Chorus: All]
Oh baby, I'm missing you
We used to love so strong
Tell me, where did we go wrong?
Oh baby, I'm missing you
They say I'll learn to forget
But it sure ain't happened yet

[Verse 1: AJ & Nick]
Been checking all the places
Where we used to go (used to go)
Been looking for your face inside the crowd
I've been talking to the people that we used to know
But nobody wants to say, where you hang out
And when I call your phone
Seems like your never, ever home
And you don't return my calls (return my calls)
It tears me apart (it tears me apart)
It's breaking up my heart (it's breaking up my heart)

[Chorus: All]
Oh baby, I'm missing you
We used to love so strong
Tell me, where did we go wrong?
Oh baby, I'm missing you
They say I'll learn to forget
But it sure ain't happened yet

[Verse 2: AJ & Brian]
I still have your pictures
Hung around my room (around my room)
They're the only thing that's left of you and me
Girl, what can I do to make you come back soon
And make it just the way it used to be?
Oh, is there someone new?
Could never go on without you
Girl I don't wanna think about it (think about it)
I can't sleep at night (can't sleep at night)
No, this can't be right (this can't be right)
Come back into my life (come back, baby come back)

[Chorus: All]
Oh baby, I'm missing you
We used to love so strong
Tell me where did we go wrong
Oh baby, I'm missing you
They say I'll learn to forget
But it sure ain't happened yet

[Bridge: Brian]
I know there's a chance for you and I
And I believe there's no way our love could die
So no matter how long it takes, I'll wait for you
And whatever it takes I'll be there for you
I'll be there, I'll be there

[Chorus: All]
Oh baby, I'm missing you
(Missing you, missing you)
We used to love so strong
Tell me, where did we go wrong?
Oh baby, I'm missing you
They say I'll learn to forget
But it sure ain't happened yet

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy band in history, having sold over 130 million records worldwide, and with their first nine albums reaching the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Florida natives A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter, along with Kentucky transplant Kevin Richardson, were joined in a band once they attended Lou Pearlman’s auditions for a vocal group in 1992, with the group being completed by Kevin’s cousin Brian Litrell. Once took under the wing of Swedish producer Max Martin in 1995, the stage was set for global domination, attracting the lust of women and the anger of men. While the fad died down and Kevin even left for a while, the band never officially took a break or such.
