I've been walking in Central Park

Singing after dark

People think I'm crazy

I've been stumbling on my feet

Shuffling through the street

Asking people, "What's the matter with you boy?"

Sometimes I want to say to myself

Sometimes I say

Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh (START TO SOLO HERE)

I guess I'm lying to myself

It's just you and no one else

Lord I won't miss you child

You've been blotting out my mind

Fooling on my time

No, I won't miss you, baby, yeah

Lord, I miss you child
