Missing You

I live for the phone, I die for the mail
I took your picture right off the nail and put it right by my bed
So I could see you instead of the darkness of night
I hold conversations with you in my mind
They only tighten this knot deep inside and the aching won't end
'Til I hold you again, if I only survive

Why did you have to go?
Why am I missing you so?
One heartbeat at a time
I'm going out of my mind
Missing you, missing you-

I started a letter, I stared at your name
There wasn't a line that didn't echo my pain
There was no sound at all
But the slow lonely fall of an unspoken tear

Why did you have to go?
Why am I missing you so?
One heartbeat at a time
I'm going out of my mind
Missing you, missing you

Life may take us in different directions
But I always end up deeper, deeper in my true affection

Why did you have to go?
Why am I missing you so?
One heartbeat at a time
I'm going out of my mind
Missing you, missing you

Why did you have to go?
Why am I missing you so?
One heartbeat at a time
I'm going out of my mind
Missing you, missing you

Why did you have to go?
Why am I missing you so?
One heartbeat at a time
