YOU'RE MISSING

- Bruce Springsteen, The Rising

 

A favorite of mine that I think everyone should hear

The truth in it still makes me cry

For Diana everytime I hear it..."your house is waiting...for you to walk in"


 

Shirts in the closet, shoes in the hall

Mama's in the kitchen, baby and all

Everything is everything

Everything is everything

But you're missing

 

Coffee cups on the counter, jackets on the chair

Papers on the doorstep, but you're not there

Everything is everything

Everything is everything

But you're missing

 

Pictures on the nightstand, TV's on in the den

Your house is waiting, your house is waiting

For you to walk in, for you to walk in

But you're missing, you're missing

You're missing when I shut out the lights

You're missing, when I close my eyes

You're missing, when I see the sun rise

You're missing

 

Children are asking if it's alright

Will you be in our arms tonight?

 

Morning is morning, the evening falls

I got too much room in my bed, too many phone calls

"How's everything, everything?"

Everything, everything..

But you're missing, you're missing

 

God's drifting in heaven, devil's in the mailbox

I got dust on my shoes, nothing but teardrops
