You Can't Miss What You Can't Measure

Sitting here with a broken heart

Wishin' you'd come home for

Sitting here with breakin' hearts

I just can't go on

Oh!

Grief has got a hold on me

I can't think for myself

It's all because that woman of mine

Making love to someone else

I'm turning green from being blue

Without your face around

You found another to do your lovin'

And me you have put down

And I'm

Sitting here with a broken heart

Wishin' you'd come home, 'cause

Sitting here with breakin' hearts

I just can't go on

Ah!

I'm trudging water all through the house

I thought it was from my kitchen sink

I phoned the plumber to rush right over

And see if he could fix this leak

He rushed right over and he took a look

And much to my surprise

He said "My son it's not your sink

It's teardrops from your eyes"

Oh!

Sitting here with a broken heart

Wishin' you'd come home for

Sitting here with breakin' hearts

I just can't go on

You can't miss what you can't measure

That's what he tried to make me see

Love is around I know for sure

What's in store for me

Sitting here with a broken heart

Wishin' you'd come home for

Sitting here with breakin' hearts

I just can't go on

I chew my nails off one by one

I only got one to go

Unless I get what I been missin'

Never had no more

My nerves are shot, I smoke a lot

In my loneliness

And until I see your face once again

My lonely heart won't rest

And I'm

Sitting here with a broken heart

Wishin' you'd come home for

Sitting here with breakin' hearts

I just can't go on

Sitting here with a broken heart

Wishin' you'd come home for
