Something In My Life Is Missing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Had a dollar in his pocket
Tag inside his new used suit
Felt like a Friday Davy Crocket
Never learned to take orders or salute
He’s as thin as his checkbook
But he could pass for a movie star
All the while he had that wrecked look
Best looking man in the whole wide bar
Be my best friend, I ain’t seen him in awhile
Something in my life is missing
Something in my life is missing
Something in my life is missing him by a mile
Here I slight
A midwestern Shakespeare
In a tiny perfect hand
He tells you so much, you move he just breaks ya
Fall when you decide to land
Meet my best friend, I ain’t seen him in awhile
Something in my life is missing
Something in my life is missing
Something in my life is missing him by a mile
You sit there in dead silence
You gotta friend who’s real and true
No idle conversation
He wrote a long song just for you
Something in my life is missing
Something in my life is missing
Something in my life is missing him by a mile
He paints houses for the money
He should be paid just to wake up
You imagine just together
Getting sick from drinking from the same cup
Love doesn’t always wear a stupid smile
Something in my life is missing
Something in my life is missing
Something in my life is missing him by a mile
Something in my life is missing him by a mile
