about

Anyone who has gone through grief will know that it has a habit of suddenly catching you unawares, and that's what happened to me one night as I sat on the sofa minding my own business. Something made me think of my Mum and Dad, who I lost some years ago now, and these lyrics came to me. You never stop missing the people that you've loved and lost but somehow the grief gets less raw as time goes on and you learn to cope. So this one is for my Mum and Dad, with deep gratitude for their love and an acknowledgement that I will love and miss them forever.

lyrics

I'm sitting all alone once more
And I’m wondering just what all of this is for
Another year has gone another day
I can’t see how this feeling will ever go away

Here comes the missing

The missing it cuts like a knife
Though I try to get on happy with my life
I know I told you that I’d be OK
And I try to be but sometimes, I just need to take a day

Here comes the missing

I’d hear your voices and I’d feel much warmer
Just knowing you were always in my corner
Though mostly I’m sunny
You know it’s kinda funny
Your little girl’s brown eyes look clearly so much older

Here comes the missing

As a child you kept me from the cold
Wrapped up in coats and scarves in colours bold
Sometimes I wouldn’t do what I was told
But now this endless winter is getting very old

Here comes the missing

I’d give up everything I own and more
For one moment of your time my heart would soar
They said that in a while, the pain will feel less raw
But I still long to go back home to your dear faces at the door

Here comes the missing

I’m sorry if I sound a little sad
When you gave me the best life I could have had
Your memory I will honour
And tomorrow I’ll be stronger
But the missing still goes on for you my Mum and Dad

Here comes the missing

about

Angie Kuske UK

I'm a Singer-Songwriter based in Kent, UK. I started writing lyrics in the early 90s until work took over. I gradually taught myself how to use Garageband and now create all my songs from start to finish. I write unique, catchy pop songs with an 80s influence. I believe my lyrics have meaning and imagery which I hope people can relate to. Music links: linktr.ee/AngieKuskeMusic ... more
