Miss You

I've been holding out so long
I've been sleeping all alone
'Cause I miss you

I've been hanging on the phone
I've been sleeping all alone
I want to kiss you

I've been moanin' in my sleep
You've been starring in my dreams
'Cause I miss you, child

I've been waiting in the hall
I've been waiting for your call
When the phone rings

It's just a friends of mine sayin'
"Hey, hey, what's the matter with you, girl?
We're gonna come around by twelve
With some bad Puerto Rican dudes
Oh, they're gonna be just dyin' to meet you
We're gonna bring a case of wine
And we're gonna mess around like we used to"

I miss you, baby
Baby, why did you wait so long?
I wanna know, yeah-yeah
Baby, why did you wait so long?
Yeah, come on, come on

I've been walking in Central Park
Singing after dark
People think I'm crazy

Stumbling on my feet
Shuffling through the street
Asking people, "Hey, what's the matter with you, boy?"

Sometimes I wanna say to myself
Oh-oh-oh-oh

I won't miss you, child
Guess I'm lying to myself
There's just you and nobody, nobody else
'Cause I miss you, baby

I've been waiting in the hall
Waiting on your call
And the phone rings

Ah, it's just a friend of mine saying
"Hey, hey girl, what's the matter with you?
We're gonna come around by 12
With some Puerto Rican dudes, oh, ay-ay-ay-ay-ay
They're just dying to meet ya
We're gonna bring a case of wine
And we're gonna mess around, you know what I mean, like we used to, ha?"
La-la-la-la-la

I've been waiting in the hall
Waiting on your call
Oh-oh, 'cause I miss you, baby

I guess I'm lying to myself
There's just you and no one else, believe me baby
And I miss you, baby
I miss you, baby
