they took the boxes off the stage
my heart was crushed in disarray
the world was frozen and engaged
to find the king had slipped away

i walk through the streets
i feel so alone with questions and pain
but the only thing i know

i will always be missing you
and your love will last forever in my heart
i will always be missing you
cause you changed my life for the better
i will always be missing you

you held my hand a little while
we sang a song of lover's vows
you looked at me with a graceful smile
and then you gave your final bow

you exit the building to never return
and i'm here alone as the memory starts to burn

i will always be missing you
and your love will last forever in my heart
i will always be missing you
cause you changed my life for the better
i will always be missing you

you inspired a dream to make the world a better place
i'll do my best today to carry on

i will always be missing you
and your love will last forever in my heart
i will always be missing you
cause you changed my life for the better
i will always be missing you

i will always be missing you, Michael
and your love will last forever in my heart
i will always be missing you
cause you changed my life for the better
i will always be missing you
