Miss You Nights

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 are your face

warm winds that embrace me

Just as surely kissed your face

Yet these miss you nights

they're the longest

Lay down

all thoughts of your surrender

It's only me who's killing time

Lay down all dreams

and feelings once remembered

It's just the same this miss you game

Thinking of my going

How to cut the thread and leave it

all behind

Looking windward for my comfort

I take each day as it arrives

But these miss you nights

are the longest

But these miss you nights

are the longest
