are you missing me

my original demo song... Are You Missing Me - ©Richard Murrey I still set your place at the table. Out of habit or maybe belief. That somehow you’ll walk through that doorway. And bring an end to my grief. The coffee’s still brewing at sunrise. But it don’t taste right alone. And the silence that fills up this morning. Hits deeper than granite stone. Are you missing me, like I’m missing you? Do you reach in the night for a love that’s not true? Does your heart ever ache when the wind whispers low. Like it’s calling your name through that moonlit glow? I still wear your memory like it’s stitched to my sleeve. But tell me— are you missing me? I found your note in the dresser. Just four simple words in a row.“Don’t wait for me.” I read it slow. But the meaning won’t let me go. I walk past your ghost in the mirror. Every time I get dressed for the day. But I smile through the pain and pretend. That I’m doing okay. chorus They say time’s a healer, but I’ve seen no cure. I’ve tried moving on... but I’m still not so sure. ‘Cause the clock keeps on ticking, and the tears never dry. And I still see your face when I close my eyes. Are you missing me, like I’m missing you? Do you reach in the night for a love that’s not true? Does your heart ever ache when the wind whispers low. Like it’s calling your name through that moonlit glow? I’d let go tomorrow if I just could believe... That once— even once— you were missing me
