I remember the first time I saw you 
You were drifting down Crouse Ave 
You looked like a hot-country-Vermont 
Though my eyes were never that good 
Your head seemed to hold itself up high 
On that long thin neck of yours 
You glanced back although we never had passed 
You lit a cigarette and smiled 
And when we kissed it was electric 
A chemist made us for each other 
But I was far from being your only one 
My roommate said he'd seen you before

There's something missing in us 
We try to make it whole 
Though it never feels like it, I know you have it all 
There's something missing in us 
We long to make it whole 
Though it never feels like it 
I know you have it all 
I know you have it all 

We went to the social development dance 
The whiskey went down easily 
You kissed the best you had enormous breasts 
And we wandered out really early 
We were neighbors for a very short time 
It all worked out quite wrong 
When your boyfriend called 
You pressed against the wall 
"Oh I really gotta go now"

There's something missing in us 
We try to make it whole 
Though it never feels like it, I know you have it all 
There's something missing in us 
We long to make it whole 
Though it never feels like it 
I know you have it all 
I know you have it all 

We'd move away when the winters were gone 
I think I saw you once in the city 
I heard you were staying up North with a friend 
And that your hair was falling out 
I tried to find out what had happened to you 
I Googled you in quotes got no results 
I never learned how you had died 
But I knew how you had lived 

There's something missing in us 
We tried to make it whole 
Though it never felt like it I know you had it all 
There's something missing in us 
We longed to make it whole 
Though it never felt like it, I know you had it all 
I know you had it all 
Friend my friend, you left us in the end.
