The gentle melody and Keith’s emotive vocals create a melancholic atmosphere, perfectly reflecting the song’s theme. The lyrics paint a picture of a man grappling with the absence of his loved one. He reminisces about shared moments and struggles to fall asleep without their presence.

Lyrics: Missing Me Some You 

Midnight in the desert
So far away
It’s a fingernail moon
Dancing through the milky way
Stars down in dixie
Look the same way here
And I got your picture
Stuffed down in my battle gearI could sing that song
You know the one that drives you wild
And close my eyes and dream
That I can kiss my baby’s smile

Even the man in the moon
Is singing the blues
Hope you still love me baby
I’m missing me some you

When your head hits the pillow
To pray for my soul
That’s when your little soldier
Goes out on patrol
Never thought when I kissed you
Goodbye in tennessee
That I’d ever be lonely
But I’m about as lonely as one man can be

I could sing that song
You know the one that drives you wild
I could close my eyes and dream
That I can kiss my baby’s smile

Even the man in the moon
Is singing the blues
Hope you still love me baby
I’m missing me some you

I miss you baby

I could sing that song
You know the one that drives you wild
I can close my eyes and dream
I can kiss my baby’s smile

Even the man in the moon
Is singing the blues
Hope you still love me baby
Cause I’m missing me some you
Oh, I hope you still love me baby
Cause I’m missing me some you
