I Miss You a Little, John Michael Montgomery

So, last night Ted and I were karaoke-ing in the living room.  Every song somehow reminded me of dad.  He either sang it, arranged it, directed it or taught it!  I had a hard time with some of them.  Then I was just putzing at housecleaning and Ted sang this next song (absolutely gorgeously, I might add).  I didn't know the song, so I listened to the words.  I was a goner.  It all fit my situation perfectly.  I had to go find them and share them.  Enjoy and take the time to remember...


I Miss You a Little
John Michael Montgomery


Sometimes a song can touch a nerve
That takes me back to you
When I pick up my old guitar
And I play your favorite tune
Every now and then, some little thing
I've buried comes bubblin' up
And once in a while, you feel close enough to touch

I miss you a little since you've been gone
A few little memories keep hangin' on
I miss you a little, I guess you could say
A little too much, a little too often
A little more every day

When I go by our old house
I pretend that you're still there
Waitin' for me on the porch
But there's just an empty chair
Wish I could see you just one more time
Before I drive away
So I could stop and go inside, and say

I miss you a little since you've been gone
A few little memories keep hangin' on
I miss you a little, I guess you could say
A little too much, a little too often
A little more every day
A little too much, a little too often
A little more every day

Have a great week!

  1. Leslie - Thanks for sharing these thoughts. We miss him too. He was a very special person and you were very blessed.

    This will show up "anonymous" but you know I'm sending lots of love to all of you.

  2. So for as long as i can remember, I've always dreamed of having Ed announce my name at the state tourney. Luckily I was able to experience the state tourney with him singing America the Beautiful and his amazing announcing. I noticed last year there was a recording of America the Beautiful. It was spectacular! Is there any way i could get a copy of that song somehow?
