Lyrics

Chorus

And I, I, I still miss you

Oh, and I, I, I-I-, I still miss

And I, I, I- still miss

Saxophone Solo

Chorus

And I, I, I still miss you

Oh, and I, I, I-I- still miss

And I, I, I- still

And I, I- still need you

Oh, and I, I, I-I-, oh, I-I-, I still need

And I, I, I still need

Instrumental Break

Verse 3

Late again, the lamp is low

Rain is tapping soft and slow

Somewhere down the avenue

A horn is playing something blue

I pour a cup and let it steep

Count the promises I couldn't keep

The radio is warm and kind

It hums the things I left behind

Pre-Chorus

And every little thing reminds me

Every little corner finds me

Chorus

And I, I, I still want you

Oh, and I, I, I-I-, I still want

And I, I, I- still want

Post-Chorus

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, still want you

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, still do

Verse 4

The window fogs, the kettle sings

I fold my hands around the string

Of every word I meant to say

That slipped away some other day

The cat curls up beside my chair

The evening settles in the air

A bass line walks the room alone

And I let it take me home

Pre-Chorus

And every little thing reminds me

Every little corner finds me

Chorus

And I, I, I still need you

Oh, and I, I, I-I-, oh, I-I-, I still need

And I, I, I still need

Post-Chorus

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, still need you

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, still do

Bridge

Maybe time is just a hallway

Maybe I'm just walking through

Maybe someday I'll stop counting

All the ways I still want you

(Someday, someday)

All the ways I still need you

(Someday, someday)

Outro

And I, I, I still miss you

Oh, and I, I, I-I-, I still miss

And I, I, I- still miss

And I, I, I still need you

Oh, and I, I, I-I-, I still need

And I, I, I still need

(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

Still miss you

(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

Still need you

(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

Verse 5

Half past two, the record spins

Crackle where the needle thins

Brass is leaning on the night

Bending notes around the light

Every chair has heard this tune

Every wall has seen the moon

Tap the rhythm on my knee

Let the low end carry me

Pre-Chorus

And the melody surrounds me

Every little measure found me

Chorus

And I, I, I still hold you

Oh, and I, I, I-I-, I still hold

And I, I, I- still hold

Post-Chorus

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, still hold you

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, still do

Instrumental Break

Saxophone Solo

Verse 6

Morning cracks the window blind

Leaves a little peace behind

Trumpet talking soft and true

Somewhere in the avenue

I don't fight it anymore

Leave my slippers by the door

Count the seconds, count them slow

Watch the quiet come and go

Pre-Chorus

And every little thing reminds me

Every little corner finds me

Chorus

And I, I, I still love you

Oh, and I, I, I-I-, oh, I-I-, I still love

And I, I, I still love

Post-Chorus

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, still love you

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, still do

Bridge

Maybe someday I'll stop counting

Maybe someday I'll be through

Maybe someday I'll stop humming

Every little thing of you

(Someday, someday)

Every little thing of you

(Someday, someday)

Outro

And I, I, I still hold you

Oh, and I, I, I-I-, I still hold

And I, I, I- still hold

And I, I, I still love you

Oh, and I, I, I-I-, I still love

And I, I, I still love

(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

Still hold you

(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

Still love you

(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
