I've been holding out so long I've been sleeping all alone Lord, I miss you I've been hanging on the phone I've been sleeping all alone I want to kiss you Well, I've been haunted in my sleep You've been starring in my dreams Lord, I miss you I've been waiting in the hall Been waiting on your call When the phone rings It's just some friends of mine that say"Hey, what's the matter man?We're gonna come around at twelveWith some Puerto Rican girls that's just dyin' to meet you""We're gonna bring a case of wineHey, let's go mess and fool aroundYou know, like we used to" Oh, everybody waits so long Oh baby, why you wait so long? Won't you come home, come home? I've been walking Central Park Singing after dark People think I'm crazyStumbling on my feet Shuffling through the street Ask me people, "What's the matter with you boy?" Sometimes I want to say to myself Sometimes I sayI won't miss you child I guess I'm lying to myself It's just you and no one else Lord, I won't keep you child You've been blotting out my mind Fooling on my time No, I won't miss you, baby, yeah Lord, I miss you child Lord, I miss you child Lord, I miss you child
