Missing Person

Eric Clapton · Other Songs - Eric Clapton

I've been asking some people

If they remember the girl, if they've forgotten, round as a cotton

A dress, have you seen her, if she's much leaner

Yes she is missing is true



She has gone out there somewhere

Disappeared into thin air

I would just like to find her

I would like to remind her - the good times we had there

More than just good friends

Yes she is missing is true



I've been asking around, and what I have found

she moved on farther this time

I've been checking it out, there ain't no doubt,

the woman that used to be mine



She is a missing person

She's hiding away it would seem

She is a missing person

She so much lighter



She is a missing person

She is got a good write up

She so much tighter



Missing person

She is hiding away from me



She up and she left, now she is gone

She didn't even me a

Didn't write me note

Send me no line it's a pity



She is a missing person

Where are you

Missing person

Where are you



Missing person

Hiding away
