What's Missing
Alexander O Lyrics


I just don't understand
How love so good can turn so bad
We just don't walk away, girl
We've come too far last time to work it out

'Cause we used to have good love but now it's gone
So girl, let's try find out
(What's missing)
We used to have good love but now it's gone
So girl, we gotta try find out what's missed in love

(In our love)
In our love
(In our love)

I have to ask you girl
What would it take to make things right again
If we both do a little soul searching
We'll get back what we once had

'Cause we used to have good love but now it's gone
So girl, let's try find out
(What's missing)
We used to have good love but now it's gone
So girl, we gotta try find out what's missed in love

(In our love)
In our love
Sometimes I just don't understand

(We used to have good love)
Girl
(Looked around and now it's gone)
Now it's gone

(We used to have good love)
The love from you and me
(Let's try, find out what's missing)
Now it's gone

(We used to have good love)
Girl
(Looked around and now it's gone)
Now it's gone away

(We used to have good love)
Love, hell no
(Let's try find out what's missing)

(We used to have good love)
Yeah
(Looked around and now it's gone)
Now it's gone
(We used to have good love)
(Let's try, find out what's missing)
Gone away

(We used to have good love)
(Looked around and now it's gone)
Now it's gone
(We used to have good love)
(Let's try find out what's missing)

(We used to have good love)
Looked around and it was gone away
What's missing, girl ?
What's missing with you and me ?
Missing with you and me, baby yeah

It seems our love is like a maze
And the corridors change every day
I'm lost without your lovin'
Babe, let's find
(What's missing)

And if I have to change my way
To keep the smile on your face
I'll gladly do that for you
But let's find
(What's missing)

I'll come from New York to L.A.
Swim the ocean in a hurricane
And all the time I'll ask you
Can you tell me
(What's missing?)

'Cause when I caught your lovin', girl
Meant more to me than all the world
I'm lost without your lovin'
Help me find
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Good love but now it's gone
So girl, we gotta try find out
(What's missing)
We used to have good love but now it's gone
So girl, let's try find out
(What's missing)

We used to have good love
Looked around and now it's gone
We used to have good love
Let's try find out what's missing

(We used to have good love)
What's missing girl ?
(Looked around and now it's gone)
Missing, baby

(We used to have good love)
In our, ouh
(Let's try find out what's missing)

(We used to have good love)
(Looked around and now it's gone)
It's gone away, oh
(We used to have good love)
Gone away
(Let's try find out what's missing)

(We used to have good love)
(Looked around and now it's gone)
Gone away
(We used to have good love)
From me
(Let's try find out what's missing)
My baby, yeah

Now it's gone away
What's missing, girl ?
What's missed in our love

Now it's gone away
What's missing, girl ?
What's missed in our love

Now it's gone away
What's missing, girl ?
What's missed in our love

Alexander O’Neal is criminally underrated. He’s up there with the greatest singers of the era as far as I’m concerned. This is by far my favorite song of his. Can’t listen to it and not just feel good.

@dwightlove3704

In Europe he walks on water as
far as those ppl are concerned

@allthingshome6953

My favorite male vocalist of all time. Everyone in my family knows if we get some good money, pay Alex to sing for me.

@cavaliib1889

Facts‼️‼️‼️‼️

@allthingshome6953

There is something about this song that gives me a good feeling too. Honestly I think it's Jam and Lewis' best song. It's just something about it. Although it makes me sad too because it takes me to a particular place and time in the past when all of my family was living. I don't know everything seemed to be so much simpler then.
