I hear the mournful whistle of a distant train as the dawn begins to break I can see the shadows fade away while I'm lying halfway I turn and face the place where you used to lay your head I can still remember the last thing that you said, I'll be missing you Robin sings his song like he always does and the clock turns the radio on the dogs are barking in the neighborhood as I hurry across the lawn I see the house in the rear-view mirror just the same as I always do, but I don't believe I'll be hurrying home tonight because I'll be missing you somewhere in the back of my mind I hope I find a way to live the next few hours without calling out your name and I know that I'm to blame sunlight turns to darkness as I lose still another day I've tried to call and talk to you but I don't know what I'd say the night time closes in and I'm all alone I guess there's only one thing left to do I'll be missing you I'll be missing you
