Lately...
Been thinking `bout you Baby...
Just sittin`away watching the days go by... x2

Have you ever felt a breeze
hit your heart. Like the wind
was blowing it apart. Had you
spinning like a merry-go-round.
Indications of a storm touching
ground. I wish that I could weather any
storm. But I guess it was a heartbreak
from the norm. It was a day I will
always remember. The saddest day
in sweet November.

Chorus
Lately(i've been watchin you) been thinkin bout u baby(and everything you do)
just sitten away
watchin the days go by...

Repeat chorus

Baby I'm on my knees praying God
help me please. Bring my
baby back, right back to me.
If loving you is right then I don't
wanna go wrong. So I drown
myself with tears. Sittin' here singing
another sad love song.

Chorus x2

Baby I been torn apart.
I wish you hadn't have broke
my heart. I'm missing you babe.
Missing you everyday.

Lately I been torn apart.
I wish you hadn't have broke
my heart. I'm missing you babe.
Missing you everyday.

Chorus x4
