Lyrics
I can’t stay at home
When the night is calling
I got lots of friends
To join me for a drink
But there’s no one there
Who can stop me falling
‘Cause your love
Is like the missing link
Oh baby, I miss you
When the memories creep into my mind
Baby, I miss you
Tears of desperation make me blind
Baby, I miss you
‘Cause I left the good times way behind
Baby, I miss you
Wanna be with you
I won’t miss a chance
Looking for a new love
Searching for the girls
When the day is done
But I feel my heart’s
Looking for a true love
And I know
You’re the only one
Baby, I miss you
When the memories creep into my mind
Baby, I miss you
Tears of desperation make me blind
Baby, I miss you
‘Cause I left the good times way behind
Baby, I miss you
Wanna be with you
Baby, I miss you
And if we ever meet again
Open your heart if you can
Baby, I miss you
When the memories creep into my mind
Baby, I miss you
Tears of desperation make me blind
Baby, I miss you
‘Cause I left the good times way behind
Baby, I miss you
Wanna be with you
Baby, I miss you
When the memories creep into my mind
Baby, I miss you
Tears of desperation make me blind
Baby, I miss you
‘Cause I left the good times way behind
Baby, I miss you
Wanna be with you
