Woke up alone
Like I always
do
But somehow
this morning
I'm here missing
you
I've lived
all alone
For many long
years
Give myself
strength
Dry my own
tears
But this morning
I've noticed
A gap in my
day
Where someone
should be
But you're
too far away
Someone who
likes working
As much as
I do
Someone productive
With talent,
like you
I never have
been lonely
In all of
these long years
And now I'm
missing someone
Who never
has been here
Woke up alone
Like I always
do
But somehow
this morning
I'm here missing
you
