Lyrics
Something's Missing
(c) 2009 Greg Swartzentruber
It sure looks like home
But it don't feel the same
Every creaky floorboard
Is screaming out your name
Like a drunk in a dry town
Yearnin' for his next round
Not a drop to be found
Something's missing
Like a junkie in rehab
Yearnin' for his next stab
I'm reachin' but I can't grab
Something's missing
Morning coffee pot
Makes too much for me
I stare back at the bed
No one's there to see
Like a drunk in a dry town
Yearnin' for his next round
Not a drop to be found
Something's missing
Like a junkie in rehab
Yearnin' for his next stab
I'm reachin' but I can't grab
Something's missing
B~
I've searched far and wide
Lord knows how hard I've tried
But nothing has come close
To filling up the hole inside
Like a drunk in a dry town
Yearnin' for his next round
Not a drop to be found
Something's missing
Like a junkie in rehab
Yearnin' for his next stab
I'm reachin' but I can't grab
Something's missing
