Miss You Nights

(アルバム： 20 Love Songs - 1981)

I've had many times, I can tell you
Times when innocence I'd trade for company
And children saw me crying
I thought I'd had my share of that
But these miss you nights
Are the longest

Midnight diamonds stud my heaven
Southward burning like the jewels that eye your place
And the warm winds that embrace me
Just as surely kissed your face
Yeah, these miss-you nights
They're the longest

Thinking of my going (oooh-ooh)
How to cut the thread and leave it all behind (ooh-ooh)
Looking windward, for my compass (ooooh)
I'll take each day as it arrives (oooh-oooh)
But these miss you nights
Are the longest

(Lay down) Lay down all thoughts of your surrender
It's only me who's killing time
(Play down) Play down all these dreams remembered
It's just the same, this miss-you game

Yet these miss-you nights
Are the longest
