I live for the phone, I die for the mail
I took your picture right off the nail
And put it right by my bed
So I could see you instead
Of the darkness of night

I hold conversations with you in my mind
They only tighten this knot deep inside
And the aching won't end
Till I hold you again
If I only survive

Why did you have to go?
Why am I missing you so?
One heartbeat at a time
I'm going out of my mind
Missing you, missing you

I started a letter, I stared at your name
There wasn't a line that didn't echo my pain
There was no sound at all
[- From: http://www.elyrics.net -]
But the slow lonely fall
Of an unspoken tear

Why did you have to go?
Why am I missing you so?
One heartbeat at a time
I'm going out of my mind
Missing you, missing you

Life may take us in different directions
But I'll always end up deeper, deeper in my true affection

Why did you have to go?
Why am I missing you so?
One heartbeat at a time
I'm going out of my mind
Missing you, missing you

Missing you, missing you
Missing you, missing you
Missing you, missing you
Missing you darling
Missing you baby
Missing you, missing you
