Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I don't know why, but I'm feeling so sad

I long to try somethin' I never had

Never had no kissing

Oh, what I've been missing

Lover, where can you be?

[Verse 2]

The night is cold

And I'm so all alone

I'd give my soul just to call you my own

I've got a moon above me

But no one's here to love me

Lover, where can you be?

[Verse 3]

I've heard it said

That the thrill of romance

Can be like

A heavenly dream

I go to bed with a prayer

That you'll make love to me

Strange as it seems

[Verse 4]

Someday we'll meet

And you'll dry all my tears

And whisper sweet

Little things in my ears

Hugging and a-kissing

Lord, what I've been missing

Lover, where can you be?

[Verse 5]

I've heard it said

That the thrill of romance

Can be like

A heavenly dream

I go to bed with a prayer

That you'll make love to me

Strange as it seems

[Verse 6]

Someday we'll meet

And you'll dry all my tears

Then whisper sweet

Little things in my ears

Hugging and a-kissing

Lord, what I've been missing

Lover, where can you be?
