Missing Children

Missing Children -Teddy Thompson

Wake up and check the mail

Open to find a letter from you

But all I find are missing children

Turn on the morning news

Open to see the resemblance of you

But all I see are missing children

Tell me do you miss me like a missing child

Trying to start my day

Pouring the coffee

Reach for the milk and the carton says

Have you seen these children

So I go to church and pray

Down on my knees when the plate comes

And please give what you can for missing children

Oh tell me do you miss me like a missing child

And I do feel bad for faces in my face all day

But the circumstance

Means I can't think of anything but you

No I can't care for anyone but you

So I try to get away

Whole different place

But the sign are the same

There's always more

More missing children

And when I close my eyes

I used to dream sweet dreams of you

Now all my dreams

Are missing children

And I miss you

I miss you like a missing child

And I miss you

I miss you like a missing child

A missing child

A missing child
