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 twelve With some Puerto Rican girls that are just dying to meet you We're gonna bring a case of wine Hey, let's go mess and fool around You know, like we used to" Oh, everybody waits so long Oh, baby why you wait so long Won't you come on, come on! I've been walking in Central Park Singing after dark People think I'm crazy I've been stumbling on my feet Shuffling through the street Asking people, "What's the matter with you boy?" Sometimes I want to say to myself Sometimes I say, I won't miss you child I guess I'm lying to myself It's just you and no one else Lord I won't miss you child
