I Miss Your Love

Story Behind The Song

While strumming on a chord progression one thing led to another and before long I had the opening melody and the opening line. "One too many cups of coffee ain't enough to keep me up. Since you've gone I feel as empty as my empty coffee cup." From there I took it from the heart and imagined what it would be like to miss the one I love.

Lyrics

I Miss Your Love
c.2011 words and music by Steven Robert Lawson
One too many cups of coffee ain't enough to keep me up
Since you've gone I feel as empty as my empty coffee cup
I miss your love
Those trips we took together driving down unknown roads
and all that drift wood we gathered now seems like such a light load
I miss your love

I'm miss your love like momma bear misses it's cub
like a farmer misses the rain or a hobo missing a train
I miss your love like a cowboy misses his truck
like a boy misses his glove like an artist missing a brush


I miss all those nights you held me when I thought all the world was wrong
I miss the way you used to tell me I shouldn't give up on my songs
I miss your love
