I've had many times I can tell you
Times when innocence I'd trade for company
And children saw me crying
I thought I'd had my share of thatBut these miss you nights
Are the longestMidnight diamonds stud my heaven
Southward burning lie the jewels that eye my place
And the warm winds that embrace me
Just as surely kissed your faceYeah these miss you nights
They are the longestHow I missed you I'm not likely to tell
I'm a man and cold day light
Buys the pride I'd rather sell
All my secrets are wasted affair you know them wellThinking of my going
How to cut the thread and leave it all behind
Looking windward for my compass
I take each day as it arrivesBut these miss you nights
Are the longestLay down all thought of your surrender
It's only me who's killing time
Lay down all dreams and themes once remembered
It's just the same this miss you gameYeah these miss you nights
Are the longest
