Perhaps I'd Miss You Less

Lyrics by Steven R. Drennon, ©️ 1989 - 2025 Please check out my YouTube channel if you get a chance: https://www.youtube.com/@firstep3 [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] At times I long to feel your arms Around me, warm and tight, Or hear your whisper, telling me That everything’s all right. [Verse 2] Sometimes when I awaken in The middle of the night, I find, when stumbling through the dark, That tears have blurred my sight. [Chorus] Perhaps I’d miss you less If love had never grown, If I had learned to stand Without you, on my own. Perhaps I’d miss you less If only time could heal, But memories of you Still make the pain too real. [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 3] Though often I find loneliness Has filled me with dismay, I realize that we were left With nothing more to say. [Verse 4] I know it’s best that you have left To try and make your way. Perhaps if I had loved you more, I’d miss you less today. [Chorus] Perhaps I’d miss you less If love had never grown, If I had learned to stand Without you, on my own. Perhaps I’d miss you less If only time could heal, But memories of you Still make the pain too real. [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 4 - Slower Tempo] I know it’s best that you have left To try and make your way. Perhaps if I had loved you more, I’d miss you less today. [Instrumental Outro]
