i'm missing you ('cause you've been gone so long)
i'm needing you (so i'm writing you this song)
hoping that you'll hear it
and someday come back to me

i see you every night
before i close my eyes (but i can't fall asleep)
and even though i see you
in my waking dreams
i want you here with me (i need you here with me)

i'm calling you (to hear your voice, my love)
i'm missing you ('cause two minutes is too long)
'cause i can't go without you
for as short a time as this
so all i'll say is "i miss you"

hold your breath and wait for me
and i'll do the same for you
