  • Since you've been away
    I've been down and lonely
    Since you've been away
    I've been thinking of you
    Trying to understand
    The reason you left me
    What were you going through?

    I'm missing you
    Tell me why the road turns
    Ooh ooh
    I'm missing you
    Tell me why the road turns

    As i look around
    I see things that remind me
    Just to see you smile
    Made my heart fill with joy
    I'll still recall
    All those dreams we shared together
    Where did you run to, boy?

    I'm missing you
    Tell me why the road turns
    Ooh ooh
    I'm missing you
    Tell me why the road turns

    Sometimes i've wondered
    I didn't understand
    Just where you were trying to go
    Only you knew the plan
    And i tried to be there
    But you wouldn't let me in

    But now you've gone away boy
    I feel so broken hearted
    I knew the day we started
    That we were meant to be
    If only you'd let me!
    I've cried so many tears
    Gotta face now all my fears
    We let time slip away
    I need you boy
    Here today!

    There was so much you gave me
    To my heart
    To my soul
    There was so much of your dreams
    That were never told
    You had so much hope
    For a brighter day
    Why were you my flower
    Plucked away

    I'm missing you
    Tell me why the road turns
    Ooh ooh
    I'm missing you
    Tell me why the road turns Writer/s: LIONEL B., JR. RICHIE
