Missing You
Lyrics:
[English]
(gentle upbeat music)
♪ Standing here, looking out my window ♪
♪ My nights are long and my days are cold ♪
♪ 'Cause I don't have you ♪
♪ How can I be so damn demanding ♪
♪ I know you said that it's over now ♪
♪ But I can't let go ♪
♪ Every day, I want to pick up the phone ♪
♪ And tell you that ♪
♪ You're everything I need and more ♪
♪ If only I could find you ♪
♪ Like a cold summer afternoon (yeah) ♪
♪ Like the snow coming down in June ♪
♪ Like a wedding without a groom ♪
♪ I'm missing you (baby) ♪
♪ I'm the desert without the sand (all right) ♪
♪ You're the woman without a man ♪
♪ I'm the ring without a hand (yes I am) ♪
♪ I'm missing you ♪
♪ Driving 'round, thought I saw you pass me ♪
(chuckles softly)
♪ My rearview mirror's playing tricks on me ♪
♪ 'Cause you fade away ♪
♪ Maybe I'm just hallucinating ♪
♪ 'Cause my loneliness got the best of me ♪
♪ And my heart's so weak ♪
♪ Every day, I want to pick up the phone ♪
♪ And tell you that ♪
♪ You're everything I need and more ♪
♪ If only I could find you ♪
♪ Like a cold summer afternoon ♪
♪ Like the snow coming down in June (all right now) ♪
♪ Like a wedding without a groom ♪
♪ I'm missing you ♪
♪ I'm the desert without the sand ♪
♪ You're the woman without a man ♪
♪ I'm the ring without a hand ♪
♪ I'm missing you ♪
