Had a dollar in his pocket Tag inside his new used suit Felt like a Friday Davy Crocket Never learned to take orders or salute He’s as thin as his checkbook But he could pass for a movie star All the while he had that wrecked look Best looking man in the whole wide bar Be my best friend, I ain’t seen him in awhile Something in my life is missing Something in my life is missing Something in my life is missing him by a mile Here I slight A midwestern Shakespeare In a tiny perfect hand He tells you so much, you move he just breaks ya Fall when you decide to land Meet my best friend, I ain’t seen him in awhile Something in my life is missing Something in my life is missing Something in my life is missing him by a mile You sit there in dead silence You gotta friend who’s real and true No idle conversation He wrote a long song just for you Something in my life is missing Something in my life is missing Something in my life is missing him by a mile He paints houses for the money He should be paid just to wake up You imagine just together Getting sick from drinking from the same cup Love doesn’t always wear a stupid smile Something in my life is missing Something in my life is missing Something in my life is missing him by a mile Something in my life is missing him by a mile
