John Kander - I Miss the Music lyrics

VERSE 1 [Aaron] I miss the music I miss the song Since she's not with me It comes out wrong It doesn't matter How hard I try I've lost the music I don't know why VERSE 2 [Aaron] You may have known Before I met her I wrote alone But if you ask me What I prefer, I'd say, the music I wrote with her VERSE 3 [Aaron] When you're writing a song And you've a partner The room is filled with jokes and chatter She says something You say something She writes a line You play a vamp VERSE 4 [Aaron] But when you're writing a song Without a partner That's a completely different matter No one tells you That's not funny No one says Let's cut that bar No one makes you better than you are VERSE 5 [Aaron] I can't pretend I miss the music I miss my friend No need to ask me What I prefer I choose the music I wrote with here I liked the music I made with- [Interrupted by Georgia] [Various dialogue] VERSE 6 [Aaron] I miss the music I miss my friend No need to ask me What I prefer I choose the music I wrote with her I loved the music I made with her
