Missing You

Missing You - Al Kooper

I still recall the bouquet of your body

As though it were yesterday

And with trembling hands I reach for the bottle

To drink all my sadness away

Loving you baby was the peak of my life

Now there's nowhere for me to go but down

And I feel like that boy in the prince and the pauper

As he dressed up in rags and than gave up his crown

Missing you has made me a shell of a man

Missing you baby until I just can't understand

Missing you baby

Whatever tore us apart now

No no no honey

Ao ao ao baby

Oh destiny you're so mean and you're cold

And there's nothing folks can do to cramp your style

Just like the man who's convicted of murder

Will pay for his crime when he walks that last mile

Lovin' you baby baby was my whole life to me

And you start dyin' the moment that you're born

And no one is there when you've picked all the roses

To come to your side and pull out every thorn

Missing you has made me a shell of a man

Missing you baby until I just can't understand

Missing you baby

Whatever tore us apart now

No no no baby

Ao ao ao baby

Missing you

Missing you

Missing you

Has made me subtle I can be baby

Got out of hurt

And the misery

Missing you
