You’re the one that I Miss

If I ever feel lonely, you’re the only one I miss
And if I ever need company, you’re the only one on my list
And I, I’m lost without you and I’m falling apart
Cause you are my everything but you’re breaking my heart
I’m fighting this, I’m fighting this
Cause you’re the one who makes me happy,
You’re the one that I miss I’m fighting this,
I’m fighting this
Cause you’re the one who makes me happy,
You’re the one that I miss If you ever feel sorrow,
I’ll be there by your side If you ever feel lost or lonely
I’ll be your guide and I,
I’m thinking about you every night and day
You are my everything and I want you to stay
I’m fighting this, I’m fighting this
Cause you’re the one who makes me happy,
You’re the one that I miss I’m fighting this,
I’m fighting this
Cause you’re the one who makes me happy,
You’re the one that I miss
And I miss you every day
And I miss you in every way I’m fighting this,
I’m fighting this
Cause you’re the one who makes me happy,
You’re the one that I miss I’m fighting this,
I’m fighting this
Cause you’re the one who makes me happy,
You’re the one that I miss.

Listen:
You're the One that I Miss




This song was going to be about the breakup of a relationship and the guy trying to deal with it. I’d made a start on the song when my mother passed away. I couldn’t stop thinking about her while trying to continue with my writing. I know she was with me while I finished the lyrics. She had Alzheimer’s but she always knew me when I visited. I’d stand in the doorway to her room and say ‘hello’. I still hear her saying ‘aw, it’s ma laddie’.
