Ive been holding out so long Ive been sleeping all alone Lord I miss you Ive been hanging on the phone Ive been sleeping all alone I want to kiss you
Well, Ive been haunted in my sleep Youve been starring in my dreams Lord I miss you Ive been waiting in the hall Been waiting on your call When the phone rings Its just some friends of mine that say, Hey, whats the matter man? Were gonna come around at twelve With some puerto rican girls that are just dyin to meet you. Were gonna bring a case of wine Hey, lets go mess and fool around You know, like we used to
Oh everybody waits so long Oh baby why you wait so long Wont you come on! come on!
Ive been walking in central park Singing after dark People think Im crazy Ive been stumbling on my feet Shuffling through the street Asking people, whats the matter with you boy?
Sometimes I want to say to myself Sometimes I say
I wont miss you child
I guess Im lying to myself Its just you and no one else Lord I wont miss you child Youve been blotting out my mind Fooling on my time No, I wont miss you, baby, yeah
