“I Still Miss Someone” is a country standard written by Johnny Cash with his nephew Roy Cash Jr. Cash first recorded it in 1958, early in his Columbia Records years, and it quickly became one of his signature songs.
The lyric is a plain, aching statement of unresolved heartbreak — a singer who has moved on in every outward way but still cannot stop missing a lost love. That economy and emotional directness made the song a favorite of Cash’s own concerts and a piece many other artists wanted to sing.
“I Still Miss Someone” has been recorded across country, rock, folk, and bluegrass, by performers from Emmylou Harris to Stevie Nicks.
