My days are quiet and lonely,
They drag by slowly, too;
I know the reason for this,
It's easy, I'm missing you.
I miss the sparkle in your eyes,
And that great big beaming smile;
I miss your conversation,
And sitting together a while.
Your orneriness made me laugh,
You could find someone's best;
We always had a lot of fun,
When we escaped the rest.
You've been gone a while now,
But you are ever in my thoughts;
Missing you is a part of me,
Though tears are no longer fought.
When my spirits are dipping low,
And the world seems against me, too;
I see your wonderful face,
And know that I'm missing you.
