Missing You Takes Up Most Of My Time

Two Twenty Two In The Morning
It's Been An Hour Since Two Twenty One
And I Laid Down About Seven Thirty
Came Home Early Just To Wait By The Phone
That Old Clock Will Be Ringing At Seven
And I'm Expected At The Office By Nine
But I'll Sit And Stare Out The Window All Day
Missin' You Takes Up Most Of My Time
I've Spent Three Years (Three Years)
And Five Days (Five Days)
Trying To Quit It
But You've Been Gone (Been Gone)
For So Long (So Long)
I Just Can't Forget It
And There's So Many Things That I'd Like To Do
But They Don't Mean A Thing Without You
Girl Ever Since You've Said Goodbye
Missin' You Takes Up Most Of My Time
Day In Day Out It's Always The Same Girl
Forever's Turned It's Back On Me
And The Seconds Creep By Just Like Hours
And The Weekends Go On Endlessly
Once We Had The Love Of A Lifetime
Now I Just Watch My Life Go By
But I Keep Such A Busy Schedule These Days
Missin' You Takes Up Most Of My Time
I've Spent Three Years (Three Years)
And Five Days (Five Days)
Trying To Quit It
But You've Been Gone (Been Gone)
For So Long (So Long)
I Just Can't Forget It
And There's So Many Things That I'd Like To Do
But They Don't Mean A Thing Without You
Girl Ever Since You've Said Goodbye
Missin' You Takes Up Most Of My Time
Girl Ever Since You've Said Goodbye
Missin' You Takes Up Most Of My Time...
It's Been An Hour Since Two Twenty One
And I Laid Down About Seven Thirty
Came Home Early Just To Wait By The Phone
That Old Clock Will Be Ringing At Seven
And I'm Expected At The Office By Nine
But I'll Sit And Stare Out The Window All Day
Missin' You Takes Up Most Of My Time
I've Spent Three Years (Three Years)
And Five Days (Five Days)
Trying To Quit It
But You've Been Gone (Been Gone)
For So Long (So Long)
I Just Can't Forget It
And There's So Many Things That I'd Like To Do
But They Don't Mean A Thing Without You
Girl Ever Since You've Said Goodbye
Missin' You Takes Up Most Of My Time
Day In Day Out It's Always The Same Girl
Forever's Turned It's Back On Me
And The Seconds Creep By Just Like Hours
And The Weekends Go On Endlessly
Once We Had The Love Of A Lifetime
