Missing You Takes Up Most Of My Time Lyrics - Dr. Hook

Two twenty two in the morning 

It's been an hour since two twenty one 

And I laid down about seven thirty 

Came home early just to wait by the phone 

That old clock will be ringing at seven 

And I'm expected at the office by nine 

But I'll sit and stare out the window all day 

Missin' you takes up most of my time 

I've spent three years (three years) 

And five days (five days) 

Trying to quit it 

But you've been gone (been gone) 

For so long (so long) 

I just can't forget it 

And there's so many things that I'd like to do 

But they don't mean a thing without you 

Girl ever since you've said goodbye 

Missin' you takes up most of my time 

Day in day out it's always the same girl 

Forever's turned it's back on me 

And the seconds creep by just like hours 

And the weekends go on endlessly 

Once we had the love of a lifetime 

Now I just watch my life go by 

But I keep such a busy schedule these days 

Missin' you takes up most of my time 

I've spent three years (three years) 

And five days (five days) 

Trying to quit it 

But you've been gone (been gone) 

For so long (so long) 

I just can't forget it 

And there's so many things that I'd like to do 

But they don't mean a thing without you 

Girl ever since you've said goodbye 

Missin' you takes up most of my time
