Rick Hall - Miss You Nights lyrics

I've had many times I can tell you When more than anything I needed company And children saw me cry I thought I'd had my share of that But these miss you nights Oh, they're so lonely Midnight diamonds in the heavens Only know how much I miss your sweet embrace And the warm winds that caress me Just as surely kissed your face Yeah, these miss you nights They're so lonely How I miss you No, words could ever tell And these lonely nights Bring emptiness I know so well All my secrets are just wasted memories You're gone from me Thinking of your going How could you cut the threads And leave me here behind? Looking windward for my comfort I'll take each day as it arrives But these miss you nights Oh, are so lonely Forget our thoughts of love We shared so tender It's gone I know it's gone this time Forget our dreams And things we once remembered It's just the same this miss you pain You know, thinking of your going How could you cut the threads And just leave me here behind? Oh, I keep hoping for some comfort I'll take each day as it arrives Oh, but these Miss you nights Are so lonely
