the only thing missing is you

the roses just bloomed in the garden today

the water still runs by the creek by the way

that old mother hen is refusing to lay

our bank note long over due

our family reunion is finished and done

we all played horseshoes

but none of us won

we all agreed that it could have been fun

the only thing missing is you. missing one lover

missing one wife

missing someone who was part of our life

it could have been perfect

a loved tried and true

the only thing missing is you. the mailman delivers the mail everyday

those trash people still haul

the garbage away

on sunday we all go to church and we pray

there's nothing else different or new

on friday we still go and shop at the mall

were cussing the winter

and praying for fall

this could have been the best year of all

the only thing missing is you. the only thing missing is you.
