(Dave Townsend)
|
I've had many times I can tell you,
|
Times when innocence I'd trade for company.
|
And children saw me cryin',
|
I thought I'd had my share of that.
|
But these Miss You Nights...
|
Midnight diamonds stud my heaven,
|
Southward burning like the jewels that line her place.
|
And the warm winds that embrace me,
|
Just as surely kissed your face,
|
Yet these Miss You Nights,
|
Are the longest.
|
(How I miss you) How I miss you
|
I'm not likely to tell,
|
I'm a man, and the cold daylight
|
Buys the pride I'd rather sell.
|
(All my secrets) All my secrets
|
Are a wasted affair,
|
You know them well.
|
Thinkin' of my goin',
|
How to cut the thread and leave it all behind.
|
Looking moonward for my compass
|
I take each day as it arrives.
|
(Lay down) Lay down all thoughts of your surrender,
|
It's only me who's killin' time.
|
(Play down) Play down all dreams once remembered.
|
It's just the same, this miss-you game.
|
These Miss You Nights
|
Are Forever (They're forever....)
