Lyrics

Verse 1

The Bluebonnets are blooming in Texas, I?m driving this dirt covered mile

And they?re burning the fields out in Kansas, I burn the candle, stay awake for a while

And the East Cost awakes to a world that is newly alive

Well I?m missin, yeah I?m missin, you.

Verse 2

Well nothin beats the Guadeloupe in summer, when you?re floating that long lazy way

Or watching the Cubs play in Wrigley, I watch my weapon and pray through the day

Cause freedom is bought with the blood of the noble and true

But I?m missin, yeah I?m missin, you.

Chorus

Well lonely the man ?cross the waves of the ocean

Cause feelings of home have been flooding his heart

So pour out a drink on the land that I?m missing

And long for kissing

Solo

Well when winter comes round I?ll be waiting, a big bird to come fly me away

And with my duty completed I?ll travel, never missing those hot burning days

So pick me up down at the airport I?m looking with love

Chorus

Cause I?m missing, yeah I?m missing you
