Analysis of BABY I MISS YOU
Cornell G. Mack 1955 (Washington DC)
I miss you, baby, in so many WAYS
being without you this long I'm truly AMAZED
You and I had some real fun TIMES
so much fun that it's still on my MIND
The night we met happened by CHANCE
and the feelings we shared afterward with so much ROMANCE
You became my world my reason for LIVING
you were so good to me and I cherished what you were GIVING.
As time went on I wanted you everywhere that I WENT
I enjoyed your company and appreciated the time that we SPENT.
We became so close I couldn't understand WHY
to finally realize we were both lonely INSIDE
I'm glad we met in the way that we DID
I knew other guys wanted you but I won the BID
I'll never forget the feeling that I had when you were lying in my ARMS
holding you, kissing you and crazy about your CHARM.
You made me feel so good like I'd never felt BEFORE
I can honestly say that I miss you and I'd love to have some MORE.
but if you don't think so then that's the way it'll have to BE
I hope you think about what I've said and come spend some time with ME
I said all of that just to say THIS
You are needed and really MISSED
Being that I admire you and respect you so MUCH I have to be honest with you and tell you what's UP
I've taken your advice and found someone of my OWN
but I still miss the nights that you and I spent ALONE
and if you miss me in the way that I miss YOU
And if I can't see you ,baby a phone call will DO
Sometimes it takes someone else to help you see the LIGHT
the way it's shinning now it was shinning the same that NIGHT
