Missing You

(album: It's Hard To Be Alone - 2020)

I could sit and reminisce
But what good would that do
Dressed up in my memories
A lonely London youth
Piccadilly lightning flashing shades of neon blue
A thousand Coke commercials couldn't shine as bright as you

But darling, you
I know that lately I'm a lie
I took some pills and I forgot
I'm missing you
And darling, you
I'm scared of how you messed me up
I said I didn't give a fuck
But that ain't true

You!
Yeah
Oh, darling, how could I forget
I'm missing you
You!
Yeah
Oh, darling, how could I forget
I'm missing you

We're like ghost ships in the night
Together and alone
It's been a while since I could hear you down the telephone
You could play my heartstrings without even trying to
Spitting Cockney venom like your mother taught you to
But darling, you
I know that lately I'm a lie
I took some pills and I forgot
I'm missing you
But darling, you
I'm scared of how you messed me up
I said I didn't give a fuck
But that ain't true

You!
Yeah
Oh, darling, how could I forget
I'm missing you
You!
Yeah
Oh, darling, how could I forget
I'm missing you

Darling, I pretend, but my fault in the end
Cause I'm always turning all my lovers into friends
Maybe I'm too late but when you hear my name
Do you still remember us together?

You!
Yeah
Oh, darling, how could I forget
I'm missing you
You!
Yeah
Oh, darling, how could I forget
I'm missing you
