Story Behind The Song
One of my first collaborations with Ted Purvin. I tried to take one of Ted's ideas and, with his input, turn it into a commercial song. We did something right...it touched our demo singer, Billy Bob, so deeply that he cried while he sang the song.
Song Description
Men and women are different and they expect different things of each other. This guy didn't change until he lost her, and now he wants to get her back. They are supposed to meet so he can show her how much he loves her, but she doesn't show.

Lyrics
The Only Thing Missin' Is You by Glenn Warren and Ted Purvin
I made reservations; My heart couldn't wait...
Brought you an orchid; Ordered champagne.
The picture is perfect for...romance for two...
The Only Thing Missin'...Is You;
The band's started playin'...our favorite song;
The waiter's sympathetic...He knows something's wrong;
The candes are meltin'; My heart's meltin' too...
'CauseThe Only Thing Missin'...Is You.
Bridge: Am I in the wrong place...the wrong day and time?
Did you say you'd be here...or have I lost my mind?
I've put my life together like you wanted me to...
The Only Thing Missin'...Is You.
Bridge: Am I in the wrong place...the wrong day and time?
Did you say you'd be here...or have I lost my mind?
I willing and waiting...to prove I'll be true;
The Only Thing Missin' Is You.
