Lyrics
I (G)al ways need ed time on my own.
Ev I nev er thought I’d

And the (G)days feel like years when I’m a lone,

When (Am7)you walk a way, I count the (G)steps that you take.
Do you (C)see how much I need you right now?
When you’re gone,
the piec es of my heart are miss ing you.
When you’re gone,
the face I came to know is miss ing too.
When you’re gone, the words I need to hear to al ways get me (D)through the day
and make it O K...
I miss you.
I’ve (G)nev er felt this time on be fore.
Ev I thing that I do
re you minds me of you.
And the (G)clothes you left, they on I’m floor, lone,
and they smell just like you.
is made the things that you do.
When (Am7)you walk a way, I count the (G)steps that you take.
Do you (C)see how much I need you right now?
