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.
He's not dead or alive
He's not off with some other guy
He's not lost track of the time
He's just
Missing
People say hey it'll never happen to me
Just goes to show how foolish people can be
I've been waiting all night for a sign from my baby
But he's
Missing
He's not coming through the door
He's not dialing the phone
He's not out on the dance floor
He's not walking home alone
He's just
Missing
He's not drugged or lost
Or trying to escape
He's not being raped
He's not in my arms
Looking in my eyes
Smiling for me
He's just
Missing
People say hey it'll never happen to me
Just goes to show how foolish people can be
I've been waiting all night for a sign from my baby
But he's
Missing
