I
talk to you but it's not the same as touching you
And
every time you whisper my name, I wanna run to you
We'll
be together, and it won't be long, it won't be long
But
it feels like forever, and it's hard to be strong
CHORUS
1:
Baby
'cause I'm missing you now
And
it's driving me crazy
How
I'm needing you baby
I'm
missing you now
Can't
wait 'til I'm alone with you
To
show you how I'm missing you now
Wishing
you were here by my side is all that I can do
My
arms around my pillow at night, they should be holding you
Thought
I was stronger, how could I know?, how could I know?
I
can't take this much longer
It's
so hard on my soul
CHORUS
2:
Baby
'cause I'm missing you now
And
it's driving me crazy
I
gotta be with you baby
I'm
missing you now
Don't
know what I'm gonna do
The
way I'm missing you now, oh
Baby
I just can't wait
'Til
I see your face
Chase
away this lonliness inside
When
you're close to my heart
Right
here in my arms
Then
and only then
Will
I be satisfied
Missing
you now
I
know we'll be together, and it won't be long, it won't be long
But
it feels like forever
And
it's hard to be strong
Baby,
cause I'm missing you now
And
it's driving me crazy
How
I'm needing you, baby
I'm
missing you
Can't
wait to be alone with you
To
show you how I'm missing you
Missing
you, missing you
Baby,
I should be holding you, kissing you
I'm
missing you now
Don't
know what I'm gonna do
The
way I'm missing you
Missing
you, missing you now
And
it's driving me crazy...
