I don't know why but I'm feeling so sad

I long to try something I've never had

Never had no kissin'

Ooh what I've been missin'

Lover man oh where can you be



The night is cold and I'm so all alone

I'd give my soul just to call you my own

Got a moon above me

But there's no one to love me

Lover man oh where can you be



I've heard it said that the thrill of romance can be

Like a heavenly dream

I go to bed with a prayer that you'll make love to me

Strange as it seems

Someday we'll meet and you'll dry all my tears

And whisper sweet little things in my ears

Huggin' and a-kissin'

Ooh what I've been missin'

Lover man oh where can you be



I've heard it said that the thrill of romance can be

Like a heavenly dream

I go to bed with a prayer that you'll make love to me

Strange as it seems

Someday we'll meet and you'll dry all my tears

And whisper sweet little things in my ears

Huggin' and a-kissin'

Ooh what I've been missin'

Lover man oh where can you be
