I Really Miss You (I Miss The Tender Smile You Gave Me) [Pop Version] Lyrics:

How I miss you, wish-ing you were here;
Need to touch you, need you to be near;
You are there all a-lone, wish-ing I could be home.

I miss the ten-der smile you gave me
when I drove away;
And I miss the ten-der way you held me,
I want-ed so to stay.
But the world plays fun-ny games a-round me,
Oh, I wish that you had found me
soon-er, but I know it's just a wa-ste
to day-dream the way I do;
I real-ly mi-ss you.

Need to touch you, feel-ing so a-lone;
Want to kiss you, have you all a-lone;
I am here on my own, wish-ing I could be home.

My time a-way, it seems so lone-ly
be-ing far from home;
The time to come I wish for on-ly
to be with you all a-lone.
And can't you see that it must be
that lov-ing you is a part of me,
that be-ing here takes that part of me a-way;
I real-ly mi-ss you.

I miss the way you held me tight,
I miss the talks we had at night,
I'm pray-ing that you'll miss me that way too;
I real-ly mi-ss you.

But the world plays fun-ny games a-round me,
Oh, I wish that you had found me
soon-er, but I know it's just a wa-ste
to day-dream the way I do;
I real-ly mi-ss you.
I real-ly mi-ss you.
I real-ly mi-ss you.
