Missing

on a night like this

you can’t brush away

all the faces in the street

I’ve got so much longing in my heart

I can’t even sleep

darling

there’s a thick fog up ahead

the first time that I saw you

I couldn’t say a thing

I walked in now, I walked in now

I walked in this room

I walked in with nothing

‘cos spending time & money doesn’t mean a thing

when the moon comes smiling through the trees

when the night has come like music to surround you

but you’re missing

I picked her up at half past four

& felt the evening coming in her tired eyes

& everyone was leaving & the moment soon passed away

darling

there’s a thick fog up ahead

the first time that I saw you

I couldn’t say a thing

I walked in now, I walked in now

I walked in this room

I walked in with nothing

‘cos spending time & money doesn’t mean a thing

when the moon comes smiling through the trees

when the night has come like music to surround you

but you’re missing
