i hear the clock, it's six a.m.
i feel so far away from where i've been
i got my eggs, and my pancakes too
got my maple syrup, everything but you
i break the yolks and make a smiley face
i kinda like it in my brand new place
i wipe the spots off of the mirror, dont leave the keys in the door
i never put wet towels on the floor anymore cause
dreams last so long, even after youre gone
i know, you love me and soon you will see
you were meant for me and i was meant for you
i called my momma, she was out for a walk
consoled a cup of coffee but it didnt wanna talk
so i picked up a paper, it was more bad news
more hearts being broken or people being used
put on my coat in the pouring rain
i saw a movie it just wasnt the same
cause it was happy or i was sad and
it made me miss you oh so bad cause
dreams last so long, even after youre gone
i know, you love me and soon you will see
you were meant for me and i was meant for you
i go about my business, im doing fine
besides, what would i say if i had you on the line
same old story, not much to say
hearts are broken every day
i brush my teeth and put the cap back on
i know you hate it when i leave the light on
i pick up a book and turn the sheets down and then
take a deep breath and a good look around
put on my pjs and hop into bed
im half alive but i feel mostly dead
i try and tell myself itll be all right
i just shouldnt think anymore tonight cause
dreams last so long, even after youre gone
i know, you love me and soon you will see
you were meant for me and i was meant for you
yeah, you were meant for me and i was meant for you
