Miss You Nights (Live) Songtext / Lyric

I've had many times I can tell you

Times when innocence I'd trade for company

And children saw me crying

I thought I'd had my share of that

But these miss you nights are the longest



Midnight diamonds stud my heaven

Southward burning like the jewels that eye your place

And the warm winds that embrace me

Just as surely kissed your face

Yeah these miss you nights they're the longest






How I missed you I'm not likely to tell

I'm a man and cold daylight buys the pride I'd rather sell

All my secrets are a wasted affair

You know them well



Thinking of my going

How to cut the thread and leave it all behind

Looking windward for my compass

I'll take each day as it arrives

But these miss you nights are the longest



Lay down all thoughts of your surrender

It's only me who's killing time

Play down all dreams and themes once remembered

It's just the same this miss you game



Yet these miss you nights are the longest
