lyrics

Something I‘m Missing
Dave Gunning / Jamie Robinson – SOCAN

Why does it feel like every dollar I make
Is barely worth a dime?
Working to live like there’s nothing better to do
Caught in between all the give and the take
Feels like the perfect crime
I count the ways it keeps me up at night
That never get to you
Is there something I’m missing?
More to this than meets the eye?
‘cause I see storm clouds dressed up like a clear blue sky
And I watch these days disappear
Like waves rolling out from the shore
And it leaves me looking for
Something I’m missing
There’s too much talking and nobody saying much
And I don't understand
It seems like nothing is ever black or white
So tell me how did my Canadian flag
Wind up with a Chinese tag?
I don’t really know what’s wrong about it
I just know it’s not right
There was a time when pride wasn’t foolish
And a man was measured by the weight of his word
Now I can’t help looking back
As I watch these days all disappear
Like waves rolling out from the shore
And it leaves me looking for
Something I’m missing
