I lay out some paper, I take out my pen
Turn on my table-lamp and here I go again
It's time to write a letter, I'm in the mood tonight
Gotta find a way to tell you how I feel inside.

So I write a little and I cry a little
It's so hard to find a way to say goodbye a little
But somewhere in the middle, my emotions interfere
So I write a little and cry a little tear
And I die a little wishing you were here.

--- Instrumental ---

God I miss you, can't be with you
I would kiss you oh, so good
'Cause you're my only cure for lonely
I'd call if I could.

So I write a little and I cry a little
It's so hard to find a way to say goodbye a little
Somewhere in the middle, my emotions interfere
So I write a little and cry a little tear
And I die a little wishing you were here.

Oh, I die a little wishing you were here.

Wishing you were here
I'm writing and wishing you were here
I write a little and cry a little tear.

I'm writing and wishing you were here...
