Can't Wait Too Long
Been too long
I miss you darling
I miss you so hard
I miss you darling
I miss you so hard
Miss you so hard
Now
(Miss you darling)
Come back baby
And don't break my heart
How it goes
And now I'm alone lying down
Looking up at the stars
(Stars)
Relivin' the
Relivin' the times we shared when the moon the stars and the music was all
Been way too long
Been way too long baby
Way too long
Been way too long baby

I can't wait too long baby

Way too long
I can't wait too long baby
Baby you know that I
Can't wait forever
Awoke in the night again
We were together
Windows of darkness are
All I can see through
Searching the shadows
Hoping to see you
Baby you know that I
Can't wait forever
Awoke in the night again
We were together
Baby you know that I...

How much I miss you
I miss you like the night's sky misses sunshine
How long shall I have to wait to make you mine?
I miss you like a poor drunkard misses wine
How long shall I have to wait to make you mine?
I miss you like a hungry guy wants to dine
How long shall I have to wait to make you mine?
I miss you like a poem's missing last line
How long shall I have to wait to make you mine?

If every year is a marble, how many marbles do you have left? How many sunrises, how many opportunities to rise to the full stature of your being?
Just wait
Things come to
You, just wait,
Events even
Overrun you,
Just wait,
Sit down, &
Relax, just wait,
Tell then,
What you want,
Ask, and not
Demand, just wait,
Your wish comes
To you, everything
Fulfills, just wait,
The heavens
& the sky meet,
just wait, the
floor and the
ceiling meet,
just wait,
they will hug
you, they will
kiss you, they
all miss you,
you were once
with them,
you were away
for such a long
time, and they
always meet
you, and tell
who and why
so just wait,
you, just wait.
You don’t even
Have to, here
They come.
here, they are,
be glad, just
be you, in gladness.

I miss you...
I miss hearing you say 'Miss. Long Legs'
I miss you showing me how to make a cake
A cake that you would make from scratch
Decorate yourself
It would take all day long
But I would sit right next to you
I miss the advice you would give me
I miss hearing your stories
Oh My Darling...
I miss the jokes you would tell me
I miss being able to call you
I miss going to your house for sunday breakfast
I miss saying 'grandma can I have more toast'
I miss going for rides with you
I miss collecting cans with you and grandpa
I miss seeing you smile
I miss the hugs you use to give me
Most of all I miss you more than ever
The day you past
It felt like my whole world caved in
I don't think I ever cried so much
The family just wont be the same
You held everyone together
Now who's going to tell me stories?
Who's going to make sunday breakfast?
Who's going to give me advice now?
Know one could ever replace you
I love you so much
I wish you where still here
I need you more than ever right now
I know your in a better place
Hopefully I will be able to see you soon
I cant wait for the day
That I can see your smile again
I miss you grandma

Cant Wait
Ive been on this road a long time
Ive been travellin for days
But it seems Im getting nowhere
I just cant find my way
Ive been following directions
But they must be out of date
And I cant, and I cant, and I cant, no I cant
Decide which road to take
See Ive got to find my baby
Cause we need to work things out
Ive got to see that woman
I cannot do without her!
You know I cant wait, cant wait another moment
I cant wait, I cant wait another heartbeat
No I cant wait, cant wait another moment
I couldnt wait another heartbeat
I cant wait until midnight
And the nights go on forever
These days I get no sleep
And I miss her more than ever
Inside where love runs deep
Oh I know Im going to find her
Cause Im following this star
And I cant, and I cant, no I cant turn back
Oh lord, Ive come so far
And Ill know shell whisper in my ear
bout all the things Ive missed
Shes got that way about her now
I never could resist
And now I cant wait, cant wait another moment
No I cant wait, I cant wait another heartbeat
I cant wait, cant wait another moment
I couldnt wait another heartbeat
I cant wait until midnight
No I cant wait
I cant wait another moment
I couldnt wait another heartbeat
I cant wait until the midnight
Now I cant wait
No no no cant wait
No no no
Cant wait
No no no
Cant wait

Seven Days
I dont care if the rain dont shine
Oh, I dont care if the sun dont fall
You are the one in a million, child
And you knew that I would call
Thoughts of you alone with me
I cant slow them down
But I cant sleep at night
Because youre not around
I cant wait
Seven days is a long time
To be waiting for you girl
I cant wait
Seven days is just too long
To be without you girl
Ive tried every kind of distraction
But nothing will ease this pain
There is only one solution, girl
So why do you make me wait
Got to say I didnt think
That I could read your mind
But I cant sleep at night
cause baby youre on mine
I cant wait
Seven days is a long time
Oh, I miss you girl
I cant wait
Seven days is just too long
I cant wait
Seven days is a long time
To be without you
I cant wait
Seven days is just too long
Just too long

In The Morning
Hey baby what you doing?
Your flight left yet?
Pshh, Im half way there
I cant wait to see you
So tell me have you left yet, damn
Im running late to the airport
Every time we do this
In my mind saying should I go through with this?
All I see is you kissing me
Last time shut my eyes
Plane goes higher, higher
Hotels booked all I have to do is get my key
I cant wait to have you walk up and hold on me, yeah
Ive never felt this way before
But in the morning
When youre gone
I must wait and be strong
And have faith
Youll return
In my arms
Hope you miss your flight
Hope you miss your flight
Casablanca has always been my dream
I heard that its absolutely radiant in spring
In the garden drinking shots of hennesy
Calm my nerves, its been way too long for me
Finally were driving in a far out dream
Nothing seems even real or close for me
Afternoon sun showers change the way I see
Ive never felt this way before
But in the morning
When youre gone
I must wait and be strong
And have faith
Youll return
In my arms
Hope you miss your flight
Hope you miss your flight
But in the morning
When youre gone
I must wait and be strong
And have faith
Youll return
In my arms
Hope you miss your flight
Hope you miss your flight
Its okay, its okay
(its okay)
Its okay, its okay
But in the morning
When youre gone
I must wait and be strong
And have faith
Youll return
In my arms
Hope you miss your flight
Hope you miss your flight

Miss You Like Crazy
Written by m. masser/g. foffin/p. glass
Even though its been so long, my love for you keeps going strong
I remember the things that we used to do, a kiss in the rain
Til the sun shined through, Id try to deny it, but Im still in love with you
I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy, ever since you went away
Every hour of every day, I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy
No matter what I say or do, theres just no getting over you
I can see the love shining in your eyes, and it comes as such a sweet surprise
If seeings believing its worth the wait, so hold me and tell me its not too late
Were so good together, were starting forever now, and I miss you like crazy
I miss you like crazy, ever since you went away, every hour of every day
I miss you like crazy, I miss you baby, a love like ours will never end
Just touch me and were there again
Musical interlude
Just one night and well have that magic feeling like we used to do
Hold on tight and whatever comes our way were gonna make it through
If seeings believing its worth the wait, so hold me and tell me its not too late
Were so good together, were starting forever now
And I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy
No matter what I say or do theres just no getting over you
And I miss you (baby), I miss you (baby), all the tender love you gave me
When a feeling gets this strong, you know the real thing come along
And I miss you, I miss you like crazy baby, only youre sweet love
Can save me, I miss you like crazy, a love like ours will never end
Just touch me and were there again,
Miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy

If you don't pay attention and if your imagination isn't pretty much engaged, you're going to miss things and you're going to miss opportunities for it to be as compelling and as creepy as it can be.

I Love You
How was your day?
I've not much to say,
But I miss you so.
What's it like there?
Snow in the air?
I couldn't watch you go,
But I want you to know.
Wherever you go,
Wherever you hide,
I'll be here waiting for you
In the middle of the night.
Whatever is lost,
Whatever may change,
I'll be here waiting for you
Standing in the pouring rain.
I'll do anything to be true,
To you.
As long as you love me,
And I love you.
How was your morning?
What time did you awake?
I miss you so much,
How ya been, Cupcake?
Why did you have to go?
Wherever you are,
I want you to know.
Wherever you go,
Wherever you hide,
I'll be here waiting for you
In the middle of the night.
Whatever is lost,
Whatever may change,
I'll be here waiting for you
Standing in the pouring rain.
I'll do anything to be true,
To you.
As long as you love me,
And I love you.
I miss your voice,
I miss you and me.
I miss how we were,
And how we should be.
Here I wait,
For the number eight.
The days going by.
They say time flies,
When you're having fun.
It's not yet begun.
Oh, hurry eight!
Don't make me wait,
And don't come late!
I can see you only,
In a matter of time.
I can't wait until again,
I can call you mine.
Wherever you go,
Wherever you hide,
I'll be here waiting for you
In the middle of the night.
Whatever is lost,
Whatever may change,
I'll be here waiting for you
Standing in the pouring rain.
I'll do anything to be true,
To you.
As long as you love me,
And I love you.
I love you.

Wonder Eye
And sometimes,
When i'm lonely,
I think of you
And i wonder
And sometimes,
When someone
Calls your name,
I wonder
You changed my life
And you could have changed my world
And i
Miss your voice and
I miss your heartbeat
I miss your face and
I miss you
And sometimes
When i'm sleeping,
I dream of you
And i wonder
And sometimes
When i forget,
I call for you
And i wonder
You said 'goodbye'
Said 'it's over'
You said 'i'm tired
I can't wait
All my life
I won't cry
Anymore'
And sometimes when
I wonder
I cry for you
And i miss you
And sometimes i
Remember
How to feel again
And i miss you

Just One Sun and So Many Sunrises
Just one Sun
and so many sunrises.
Just one Universe
and so many nations.
Just one nation
and so many living beings.
And all life -
at the mercy of the Sun.
One part will soon welcome the Sun,
yet another has embraced it already.
One part has bid farewell to the Sun,
another will soon follow.
Sunrise upon sunrise,
each part of the world -
gets its turn to be engulfed
in daylight and darkness alternately.
Dreams reign somewhere,
realization dawns elsewhere.
Just one Sun
and so many sunrises.

'Sh! keep still and don't you talk!
