Missing

I might have had a crash or two

Maybe made a hash or two

Of things, situations, yeah you know, how man's do

Window shop, harmless fun, kill time in sun

Boiling hot half past one, furthermore it's lunch time

No harm in looking, there's a meal at home so no cooking

Sweets off the menu for true, so drop the spoon

Take time and make room, clean up the house because she's home soon

Just imagine her reaction if you cook food

Give me that heavy bag and kick off your shoes

Run the bath, warm massage or two

That's amazing

Eat your dinner quick quick

Drink your drink, sip sip

We need a table baby, why I tell you later

You are the greatest to me, you're always cater for me

And I was later to me

I know I can't take

So what will it take to rectify this sorry state

'Cause yep I know I made a mistake

So now I must pay

Since you've been away

I've been down and lonely

Since you've been away

I've been thinking of you

Try to understand

The reason you left me

What were you going through

Remember the red dress, ooh baby with the low back

Trust me you were all that

If the cap don't fit then wear the hat

Simple instructions, why?

'Cause your beauty should've been the one to keep a guy, yeah

Straight and narrow

Try to take the right road, try to walk the right way

Because just like crime, love don't pay

Both lead to tears, years of pain

Usually the years that you can't get back again

And you feel me now

I be coping, holding, holding on to inner feelings

Love for you might hit the ceiling

Baby girl I done my dealings

And now I got to keep it real

Because you gone, I'm eating a meal

All alone, and I

Just can't quite see

Still looking for the possibility that you might phone

No call

That's the cutter baby, gutter baby that's where I be

I be missing you

But then you know it too

Since you've been away

I've been down and lonely

Since you've been away

I've been thinking 'bout you

I'm trying to understand the reason you left me

So what were you going through

It's times like these, yeah

Miss you baby girl, oh yes amazing you please, yeah

Reconsider what you done to me, yeah

Just can't figure out, you pack your bag and move out

And leave me here in bare stress

Never the less it was your mind

You left my favourite dress behind

And girl I feel that's unkind

Because memories like these

Like the rice with no peas

Something missing

'Cause in my mind I'm still kissing

From your lips to the back of your hand

I flash back to when I was your man

Solid rock no quicksand

I walk away from that plan

Realising that it's broke down

The queen out of town, no me no understand

Follow me the up and up

Follow me the down and down

Because for you me man a man will run around

That's true, I count the cost

Blew my last chance and took the loss

Now you got me on like Diana Ross

Since you've been away

I've been down and lonely

Since you've been away

I've been thinking 'bout you

I'm trying to understand the reason you left me

So what were you going through

Since you've been away

I've been down and lonely

Since you've been away

I've been thinking 'bout you

I'm trying to understand the reason you left me

So what were you going through
