MISS YOU MORE

lyrics & music © Matt Bradshaw 29/03/02

Images of angels
Sing me to my rest
If only how I sleep at night
Could ever be described as Heaven blessed

All my dreams are tainted
Colours washed away
And everyday I can't imagine
Tryin' to make it through another day

Time crawls

I; miss you more each day
With ev'ry passing moment
the echoes of the words I'll never say

I: still long to see your face
So cruelly taken from me
You're gone and now I'm lost without a trace

We only had a moment
the blinking of an eye
But you would turn to recognise
the voice that sang to you a lullaby

I had no time to teach you
the little that I know
Instead you taught me all about
a fearlessness that comes of letting go

Time flies

I; miss you more each day
With ev'ry passing moment
the echoes of the words I'll never say

I: still long to see your face
So cruelly taken from me
You're gone and now I'm lost without a trace

Our separation
by days or years or worlds
Means next to nothing
With my flag of feelings still unfurled
My dedication is complete

I: miss you more each day
With ev'ry passing moment...

solo

I; miss you more each day
With ev'ry passing moment
the echoes of the words I'll never say

I: still long to see your face
So cruelly taken from me
You're gone and now I'm lost without a trace

About Miss You More - 29/03/02 Matty B

The only track of mine on the debut CD, this is the song with which I kind of "auditioned" for the band, (which at the time was called KODI).

A cursory listen to this song could easily lead you to believe it's about the end of a relationship. And I guess it is, after a fashion, but not in the traditional sense. This song is written from the perspective of a father who has just lost his baby son. The dedication on the CD is to Cooper's parents.
