Since you've been away I've been down and lonely Since you've been away I've been thinking of you Trying to understand The reason you left me What were you going through? I'm missing you Tell me why the road turns Ooh ooh I'm missing you Tell me why the road turns As I look around I see things that remind me Just to see you smile Made my heart fill with joy I'll still recall All those dreams we shared together Where did you run to, boy? I'm missing you Tell me why the road turns Ooh ooh I'm missing you Tell me why the road turns Sometimes I've wondered I didn't understand Just where you were trying to go Only you knew the plan And I tried to be there But you wouldn't let me in But now you've gone away boy I feel so broken hearted I knew the day we started That we were meant to be If only you'd let me! I've cried so many tears Gotta face now all my fears We let time slip away I need you boy Here today! There was so much you gave me To my heart To my soul There was so much of your dreams That were never told You had so much hope For a brighter day Why were you my flower Plucked away (I'm missing you) Tell me why the road turns (Ooh, ooh) (I'm missing you) Tell me why the road turns

“Missing You” foi escrita, composta e produzida por Lionel Richie como homenagem ao cantor Marvin Gaye, assassinado pelo próprio pai no mesmo ano em que a música foi lançada.
A gravação da faixa contou com os próprios vocais de apoio de Lionel Richie, além de sua autoria completa.
A canção foi lançada como o quarto single do álbum *Swept Away* de Diana Ross em 13 de novembro de 1984, pela RCA Records.
Apesar de ser uma balada de tributo, “Missing You” foi incluída no repertório de Diana Ross em turnês subsequentes, mantendo viva a memória de Marvin Gaye nos shows ao vivo.
