Description
Built this song on Feter's great House of Blues songbed. I am singing with my 'twin' Carl - lol... gotta love GarageBand! :) These words just came to me as I was singing - I didn't change any of the improvised words - they were coming from the heart at some level - but I added Carl's voice as a counterpoint - call and response in some places. I like this but it's one of the more heavily filtered songs I've done - used English Channel on Feter's guitar part (!) for example. I think it's good but it might not suit everyone. :)

Lyrics
Baby I Miss You!
They say that it’s late in life for this kind of thing to happen to me
(Hunh! What do THEY know?)
They say that it’s late in life,
But all I can tell you is, it’s happening!
I get up in the morning and I
Think about you (That’s crazy…)
I get up in the morning and I
Think about you (But it’s true…)
There’s nothing else that I would rather do
And that’s the problem right there
They say I ought to
Wash my mind out with soap!
(But it’s not dirty stuff I’m thinking… not even close…)
Sometimes I’m so happy (Oh yeah!)
Sometimes I’m so blue (Oh yeah!)
I think it’s more about me than about you
(You know, that’s usually the case)
I want to try to be more like you and less like me
(I want to try to be more like you and less like me)
I want to try to be more like you and less like me
I know it’s impossible but I’m gonna try it anyway
(Well, in my spare time…)
Baby (yeah?)
When you came into my life (unh-hunh…)
I wasn’t really ready (You weren’t?)
I wasn’t even lookin’ for it (
I thought, who’s this guy? (Laughter)
And then I found out (Whooops!)
There are times when I feel happy
And times when I feel blue
Sometimes I want to scratch my own eyes out
(That’s pathetic)
Sometimes I wanna scratch my own eyes out! (so sad)
But I don’t do it, cause it’s hard to get around when you’re blind
(That’s…. true!)
(Baby) Little baby, (baby) I think of you
(Baby) More than I ought to do
I think of you and I get all smiley
And sometimes I get wily
I try to think of ways to see you again….
(Ohhhhh! Ahhhhhh!)
Baby, I miss you!
(oh!)
