On: Missing You- At Night

On: Missing You (at night)

hey, have i ever
mentioned to you how much I
miss your warmth at night?

i remember when
you would say "baby, can you
please get me a drink?"

some nights are harder
to fall asleep than others
because you're not here

i will never sleep
half as well as i did when
i slept in your arms

baby, come closer
i'm cold and i need your warmth
baby, where are you?

darling, i miss you
come back to me; i need you.
can you hear me, dear?

oh honey, can't you
see? i'm drowning in sadness.
please come and save me.

it's nights like these where
i can't seem to find a bad
memory of you

sleep doesn't come ve-
ry easy for a girl who
used to be in love
