Miss You Nights

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 are your face
warm winds that embrace me
Just as surely kissed your face
Yet these miss you nights
they're the longest
Lay down
all thoughts of your surrender
It's only me who's killing time
Lay down all dreams
and feelings once remembered
It's just the same this miss you game
Thinking of my going
How to cut the thread and leave it
all behind
Looking windward for my comfort
I take each day as it arrives
But these miss you nights
are the longest
But these miss you nights
are the longest
