  • As far as all my friends can tell
    I took her leavin' well, that's kinda right
    'Cause when I'm out with them
    I don't let her memory rule the night

    For the most part I'm okay
    But I still miss her in a round about way

    Around about the time that midnight rolls around
    That's around about the time my tears start falling down
    'Cause she's not around
    I come unwound and my heart breaks
    Yeah, I still miss her in a round about way

    I no longer sit alone for hours by the phone
    Wishin' she would call
    And just the other day
    I took her smilin' face down off my wall
    I've come a long, long way
    But I still miss her in a round about way

    Around about the time that midnight rolls around
    That's around about the time my tears start falling down
    'Cause she's not around
    I come unwound and my heart breaks
    Yeah, I still miss her in a round about way

    Yeah, I still miss her in a round about way Writer/s: Steve Dean, Wil Nance
