miss you

I roll out of bed and look back where I laid
your side of the mattress still perfectly made
your pillow is missing and I'm half afraid

I've finished one night of the time you're away
and I miss you


I'm eating for one and there's barely a stack
of dishes that fill up the dish washer rack
but that will all change on the day you come back
when you're finally home and you'll be home to stay
​'cause I miss you


the cats both believe that there's something not right
the dog will not let me be out of her sight
the fish — well, they're fish — and they're not very bright
but we all agree — more or less — upon this
that we miss you


​my heart skipped a beat and was sad from the start
no rhythm until we're no longer apart
there's only one cure for this desolate heart
and that would be you in my arms with a kiss
how I miss you
