3rd line sounds like "because you're right in front of me" in my opinion but idk

Haha, sounds a bit like Splatoon music now! This helps a bunch! Yeah, those first two lines are pretty spot on. Changes wise...

I think the 3rd line is "Was (s)he right in front of me?"

There's no "and" on the 5th line. It's either "Ask me babe" or "As we bathe" I think it's ask me babe though.

The 6th line could be "Don't chance, come on just say." (Could also be No chance)

I think the 7th line is "I'll be standing there", it fits in with the song because the singer goes be-e.

This chorus is weird. "I'll miss you" is for sure in there and it's definitely ends in SOMETHING blues. I THINK it's "I'll die now, I'll miss you and the garden blues"

I think this has made me revise my opinion on the song, and that it's either a rejected confession or the fear of getting rejected, with the person worrying about missing out on love (through not confessing), wanting the other person to ask first and feeling like they want to die (either because they'd rather die than be turned down, or that feeling of wanting the ground to open up after confessing.) As odd as the lyric "Garden blues" is, I really can't hear anything else. And with this, it kinda makes more sense? Gardens are somewhere you'd go on a date or maybe to ask someone out on a date, so that place would feel bad either because you had a failed confession or somewhere you were planning to confess but never did.

Your lyrics make more sense and you got those first two lines right for sure but take a listen to this https://vocaroo.com/19UmycMSrdJw

Hmm, for some reason I can't shake "I'll miss you, and the garden blues" as the lyrics (Maybe verdant blues?). Just from some surface level Googling, there's a song called the royal garden blues which is a very famous/important jazz song, which this might be a reference to? Maybe the song's about a singer having to leave a (jazz) band for some reason or another (some sort of romantic falling apart if I had to guess.)

My full interpretation of the lyrics (as per the extented vocaroo):
Did I fuck my whole life up?
Did I miss my one true love?
Told you I (am?) full of me
Every time I was 'out you and the garden blues
And ask me babe 
The (chance come?) on just same
I don't need you standing there
Every time and I'll miss you and the garden blues
Garden blues
Garden blues
