Lyrics:
The Only Thing Missing is You!
[V1]
Found a house down by the ocean,
You'd love it out here.
I can almost touch the stars at night.
Wish you could be that near.
[V2]
Your picture’s by the window,
Your portrait in the hall-
Your photographs of Memphis,
Are hanging on the wall.
Wish you could be that near.
[CH]
Thought I'd send this letter,
Nothing more that I can do.
The only thing missing is you.
[V3]
There's a path along the hillside,
That leads down to the sea.
Where I think about the might-have-beens;
And how we used to be.
[Bridge- with longing]
Your memory calls out to me
Do you feel the same way too?
Will I ever have a chance again,
To whisper “I love you" ?
The nights are made for lovers
And the sunrise made for two
The only Thing Missing is You---
[CH]
That's why I sent this letter
Nothing more that I can do.
The only thing missing is you
