Analysis of I Miss You
I miss you, my darling, with all of my heart
And more than my lips can say...
I long for your smile in the beautiful while
Of our marvelous yesterday...
I cry and I sigh and I pray on bended knee...
But dim is the dawn, and your laughter is gone
And nothing can comfort me...
Wherever I go and whatever I find...
It never is quite the same
For I am alone and forever unknown
And no one remembers your name.
