Lyrics

… You’ll never find, as long as you live
Someone who loves you tender like I do
You’ll never find, no matter where you search
Someone who cares about you the way I do
… Oh, I’m not braggin’ on myself, baby
But I’m the one who loves you
And there’s no one else, no one else
… You’ll never find, it’ll take the end of all time
Someone to understand you like I do
You’ll never find the rhythm, the rhyme
All the magic we shared, just us two
… Oh, I’m not tryin’ to make you stay, baby
But I know some how, some day, some way
You are
(You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
You’re gonna miss my lovin’
… You’re gonna miss my lovin’
(You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
You’re gonna miss
You’re gonna miss my love, oh
… Late in the midnight hour, baby
(You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
… When it’s cold outside
(You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
You’re gonna miss
You’re gonna miss my love
… You’ll never find another love like mine
Someone who needs you like I do
You’ll never see, oh, what you’ve found in me
… You’ll keep searching and
Searching your whole life through
Oh, I don’t wish you no bad luck, baby
But there’s no ifs and buts or maybes
… You’re gonna miss
You’re gonna miss my lovin’
(You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
… I know you’re gonna my lovin’
(You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
You’re gonna miss
You’re gonna miss my love, oh
… Late in the midnight hour, baby
(You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
When it gets real cold outside
(You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
I know, I know that you are gonna miss my love
… Let me tell you that you’re gonna miss my lovin’
(You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
Yes, you will, baby
(You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
… When I’m long gone
(You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
I know, I know, I know
That you are gonna miss my lovin’
