Lyrics
I've had many times I can tell you
I've experienced many moments, and I can share them with you
Times when innocence I'd trade for company
There were times when I would trade my innocence for companionship
And children saw me crying
Children witnessed me crying
I thought I'd had my share of that
I believed I had already endured my fair share of such experiences
But these miss you nights are the longest
However, the nights when I miss you seem to be the longest
Midnight diamonds stud my heaven
Midnight diamonds decorate my heaven
Southward burning like the jewels that are your face
Stars in the south burn like the jewels that resemble your face
And the warm winds that embrace me
The warm winds that envelop me also seem to have kissed your face
Just as surely kissed your face
Still, these nights when I miss you feel exceptionally long
Yet these miss you nights they're the longest
(Lay down) Lay down all thoughts of your surrender
(Lay down) Discard thoughts of surrendering
It's only me who's killing time
It's just me passing the time, not something to worry about
(Lay down) Lay down all dreams and feelings once remembered
(Lay down) Let go of dreams and memories once cherished
It's just the same this miss you game
This game of missing you remains unchanged
Thinking of my going
Contemplating my departure
How to cut the thread and leave it all behind
Considering how to end the connection and leave everything behind
Looking windward for my comfort
Seeking comfort in the wind blowing from the west
I take each day as it arrives
I face each day as it comes
But these miss you nights are the longest
Yet, the nights when I miss you seem endlessly long
But these miss you nights are the longest
Still, these nights when I miss you are the longest
