I Miss You (Klymaxx song)

"I Miss You" is a hit single recorded by American R&B and pop band Klymaxx for their fourth album, Meeting in the Ladies Room (1984). Written and co-produced by Klymaxx keyboardist Lynn Malsby, the song was released as the album's third single. "I Miss You" eventually reached number 5 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, number 2 on the New Zealand Singles Chart, and number 1 on the Canadian RPM Top Singles chart.
