Lyrics
Missing You
it’s getting late, I guess I ought to go
but I can’t wait all night for somebody to show
my friend behind the bar can’t quite recall my name
my friend in the Miller High Life bottle
always talks the same

I must be missing something
something I never had
they say you don’t know
what you’re missing 
but I think I’m glad
‘cause if I knew
I’d know I’m missing you

it’s getting old 
this staying out late at night
but I get a little looser
when I get a little tight
that’s when I start talking
bendin’ some stranger’s ear
talk about somebody far away
with somebody who’s near

I must be missing something
something I never had
they say you don’t know
what you’re missing 
but I think I’m glad
‘cause if I knew
I’d know I’m missing you

call me a taxi
tell him “take your time”
I need to go to heaven
got a dollar and a dime
but if he can arrange it
I’ll tip him mighty good
give him all the blues I got 
if I only could

I must be missing something
something I never had
they say you don’t know
what you’re missing 
but I think I’m glad
‘cause if I knew
I’d know I’m missing you
