Missing you
Enuff Z'Nuff Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm feelin' like I'm needin' a drink
Here I am without you
I can't go on I can't even think
I'm a man who can't do
What I need to do
To get over you
After all that we've been through
'Cause I'm wanting you
And I'm needing you

And I'm missing you
Oh, I'm missing you
You left with out a trace
And no one can take your place
'Cause I'm missing you
'Cause I'm missing you
I can't believe you're gone
How am I to carry on?

I love you and I need you so much
But you're tearing me apart
You've been so cold
You don't keep in touch
And all I want is a fresh start
And I hope that I do
Get over you
After all that we've been though




'Cause I'm wanting you
And I'm needing you
