[chorus in 5/4; verses in 3/4]

[in 5]
I miss you like water, I miss you like day
Miss you like the tonic when the dominants playin'
I miss you like the light at the end of the road
Way a seed misses the sun, I miss you like the one

[in 3]
A couple of times when your autumn eyes looked into mine
Time just stopped in my breast
And then you laughed and looked away
And the clock got back to ticking
And the sun continued west

Ought to be easy not to see you
I'm Telling myself I don't need to
Next thing I know I'm out speeding
Heart racing toward our next meeting

Half embarrassed
But I don't care

[in 5]
Cause I miss you like water, I miss you like day
Miss you like the tonic when the dominants playin'
I miss you like the light at the end of the road
Way a seed misses the sun, I miss you like the one

[in 4]
interlude

[in 3]
A couple of words I overheard
But I was not sure just exactly what you meant
Dying to ask but in case the answer's no
I'd rather not know just this yet

Cause maybe I'm misunderstanding
Probably I'm only projecting
Think I'm gonna keep on pretending
Rather than flip to the ending

Fairly embarrassed
But I don't care

[in 5]
Cause I miss you like water, I miss you like sky
Miss you like the tonic when I'm playin' the five
Miss you like a light at the end of the road
Way a seed misses the sun, I miss you like the one
