How can you rest when you're not tired How can you love when all hope has expired You don't know what you're missing I hope you know that you're missed (Chorus) He can't confide in suicide He can't pretend it's a justified end Look for the spirit by your side He's holding hands with you my friend How could you leave when the fun was just starting When all of us left were the ones you were loving You don't know what you're missing I hope you know that you're missed (Repeat Chorus) You my friend Ooh my friend A moment's problem brings a lifeless solution And then he turned the lights out at eleven You don't know what you're missing I hope you know that you're missed (Repeat Chorus x2) You my friend Ooh my friend
