I Only Miss You When
I only miss you when I breathe
When
the leaves fall
When
daffodils bloom
When
snowflakes gather
When
I laugh, cheer or frown
.
. . Sometimes when I cry
I only miss you when I blink
When
whippoorwills sing
When
puppies yap
When
I’m here or there
Or
far from anywhere
.
. . Sometimes when I laugh
I only miss you night and day
When
sunshine smiles
As
morning dawns
When
nightscape stars glow
After
the sun sets
.
. . Sometimes when I dream
I only miss you when you’re gone
When
the grass grows
When
babies cry
When
brooks babble
When
oceans roar
.
. . Sometimes when I’m lonely
I only miss you when I breathe
