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 'Til 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 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 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
