Bobby “Blue” Bland
The Only Thing Missing Is You
[Intro]
Oh, Lord
Oh, Lord, yeah
[Verse 1]
Hello, baby
I know that you’re worried
I know it is late
But there’s something I had to do
I stopped by the place
Where I first saw your face
[Chorus]
And guess what?
They’re still playing love songs
They’re still playing our song
And the only thing missing
Well, is you, oh, Lord
I said, is you
[Verse 2]
Girl, our old table
Still sits in the corner
And the jukebox
Still playing thy favorite tune
So call a babysitter
And let’s party like we used to do
[Chorus]
And guess what?
They’re still playing love songs
And they’re still playing our song
And the only thing missing
Oh, Lord is you
[Post-Chorus]
I see few old familiar faces
And few of your old friends are here too
And the only thing missing is you
They’re still playing love songs, my, Lord
They’re still playing our song, oh, baby
[Bridge]
Baby, get ready
Daddy is coming to get you
Put on your party clothes
And I’ll see you soon
Baby, do not forget, yeah
To put on your dancing shoes
[Chorus]
Guess what?
They’re still playing love songs
They’re still playing our song
And, the only (The only)
Thing missing (Thing missing)
Is you
[Outro]
Still playing love songs
Let’s party
Still playing our song
Baby, like we used to do
And the only (The only)
Thing missing (Thing missing)
Is you, Lord
They’re still playing love songs
You see, our old table
Still playing our song
Still sits in the corner
And the only (The only)
Only thing missing
Is you, oh, Lord, yeah, Lord
I see some old familiar faces
And the only thing missing
Well, is you
They’re still playing love songs
Oh, Lord
They’re still playing our song
And, the only (The only)
Thing missing (Thing missing)
Is you, Lord
They’re still playing love songs
Baby, our old table
They’re still playing our song
Still sits in the corner
But the only (The only)
Thing missing (Thing missing)
Is you
They’re still playing love songs
Oh, Lord, let’s party
They’re still playing our song
Like we used to do
And, the only (The only)
Thing missing (Thing missing)
Well, is you
