Something Missing Now

from "a little love and understanding" album
by Gilbert Becaud (3)
(Becaud / Amade / Fishman)
There’s something missing now
There’s something missing now
for it will never be the same
not without you
Still can’t believe it’s so
that you would ever go
and now, in every room
you’re like a haunting tune
Your whispered words I here
your footsteps,
coming near
My lips can’t help but call your name
speak about you
But though I call and call
no answer comes at all
I face reality
there’s no one here but me
The moon shines not as bright
the stars with dimmer lights
The birds don’t sing their evening song
not without you
And that’s how it will be
‘til you come back to me
for in my heart somehow
there’s something missing now
There’s something missing now
There’s something missing now
for it will never be the same
not without you
now
