akiko-i miss you

A couple seasons just passed me by since you made me feel so real That feeling I remember, it was as good as it can be. I haven’t seen you for a while, I wonder if you are well. What’s going on in your mind, I really would like to see. I try to see but it won’t do, it’s taking time to get near. Something is hart to explain I wonder can I tell you. We haven’t been talking much it doesn’t mean I don’t care Should I just call you to say I’m falling and I miss you. oooh hoo Wish I was with you in my dreams and I’m praying to be by your side and suddenly you’ll slip away oooh hoo Easy as flowing down the stream Do you know that Will you understand me Why is it you make me wait so long Sometimes do you think of me as much as I think of you I’d like to know when you dream Am I there Do you miss me I know you can’t share life with me and I don’t know what to do but if you walk right thru my door, you will see that I miss you In my heart I want you to know that I miss you
