Missing You
When I am here, I miss being there
When I am there, I miss being here
When I am in solitude, I miss companionship
When I have companionship, I miss solitude
When I am single, I miss being in relationship
When I am in relationship, I miss being single
When I am working, I miss not working
When I am not working, I miss working
When I am in the city, I miss the countryside
When I am in the countryside, I miss the city
When it is winter and it is cold, I miss the summer
When it is summer and too hot, I miss the winter
When I am on the prairies, I miss the mountains
When I am in the mountains, I miss the prairies
When I am on the rim of the Grand Canyon,
I miss being at the bottom
When I am at the bottom of the Grand Canyon,
I miss the rim,
When I am on the ocean, I miss dry land
When I am on dry land, I miss the ocean
When I am flying, I miss the ground
When I am on the ground, I miss flying
When I am on the east coast, I miss the west coast
When I am on the west coast, I miss the east coast
Maybe what I am missing is the point of it all
