Missing you
Craven Beverley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you always play a starring role
I'm just glad to have the time with you
It's the only place where we can go
I walk around the next day in a daze
Flashes of a feeling or your face
Three photographs, a letter and my memories
Are all I have to fill the space
Now you've gone, now you've gone
But I keep missing you
I keep missing you
Now you've gone, now you've gone
But I keep missing you
I keep missing you
Sometimes I laugh the way you used to laugh
Or say the things you used to say
If you can see me now
Just give me a sign
'Cause I can't believe you've really gone away
Now you've gone, now you've gone
But I keep missing you
I keep missing you
Now you've gone, now you've gone
But I keep missing you
I keep missing you
The way you tossed your hair
And fooled around
Will we ever meet again
Now you've gone, now you've gone
But I keep missing you
I keep missing you
Now you've gone, now you've gone
But I keep missing you
I keep missing you
Now you've gone
I keep missing you
Now you've gone
I keep missing you
The lyrics to Craven Beverly's song "Missing You" are full of longing, nostalgia, and heartache. The song is about someone who has lost a loved one, but still feels their presence in their dreams and memories. The dreams are described as unrepeatable, meaning that they are so vivid and lifelike that they cannot be replicated in real life. The person who is singing the song is grateful for the time they get to spend with their loved one in their dreams, and it is clear that this is the only solace they have after their loved one has passed.
The chorus of the song, "Now you've gone, now you've gone, but I keep missing you," repeats the central theme of the song. Even though the loved one is gone, the singer cannot help but miss them. They remember the way their loved one laughed, and the things they used to say. The singer is still in disbelief that their loved one is really gone, and is hoping for a sign that they will meet again.
The last few lines of the song are particularly poignant. The singer remembers the way their loved one tossed their hair and fooled around. They wonder if they will ever meet again. This is a common feeling after someone has passed - the desire to hold onto the possibility of reuniting with them, even though deep down, the singer knows that they are gone.
Overall, "Missing You" is a deeply emotional song that captures the feeling of loss and yearning for a loved one who has passed away. The dreamlike quality of the song adds to the bittersweet nostalgia for what once was.
