[Verse 1]

Just like a buzzin' fly, I come into your life

Now I float away like honey in the sun

Was it right or wrong?

I couldn't sing that song anyway


[Verse 2]

Oh, but darlin', now I remember

How the sun shown down

And how it warmed your prayin' smile

When all the love was there


[Chorus]

You're the one I talk about, you're the one I think about

Everywhere I go

And sometimes, honey, in the mornin'

Lord, I miss you so

That's how I know I found a home

That's how I know I found a home


[Verse 3]

Oh, hear the mountains singing

Lord, I can hear them ringing, darlin', out your name

And tell me if you know just how that river flows

Down to the sea


[Bridge]

Now I wanna know everything about you

I wanna know everything about you

What makes you smile, what makes you wild

What makes you love me this way

Darlin', I wanna know

Darlin', I wanna know


[Chorus]

You're the one I talk about, you're the one I think about

Everywhere I go

But sometimes, honey, in the mornin'

Lord, I miss you so

That's how I know I found a home

That's how I know I found a home


[Verse 4]

A-walkin' hand in hand and all along the sand

A seabird knew your name

He knew your love was growin', Lord, I think it knows it's flowin'

Through you and me

Ah, tell me darlin', when I should leave you

Ah, tell me darlin', I don't want to grieve you


[Verse 1]

Just like a buzzin' fly, I come into your life

Now I float away like honey in the sun

Was it right or wrong?

I couldn't sing that song anyway


[Verse 2]

Oh, but darlin', now I remember

How the sun shown down

And how it warmed your prayin' smile

When all the love was there


[Chorus]

You're the one I talk about, you're the one I think about

Everywhere I go

But sometimes, honey, in the mornin'

Lord, I miss you so


[Refrain]

I miss you so

I miss you so

I miss you so

I miss you so
