I hear the clock, it's 6 a.m.

I feel so far from where I've been

I got my eggs, I've got my pancakes too

I 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

Wipe the spots off all the mirror

Don't leave my keys in the door

I never put wet towels on the floor anymore 'cause

Dreams last so long

Even after you're gone

I know, that you love me

And soon you will see

You were meant for me

And I was meant for you

♪ ♪ ♪

I called my mama, she was out for a walk

Consult a cup of coffee, but it didn't wanna talk

So I picked up a paper, it was more bad news

More hearts being broken and more people being used

Put on my coat in the pouring rain

I saw a movie, it just wasn't 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 you're gone

I know, that you love me

And soon you will see

You were meant for me

And I was meant for you

♪ ♪ ♪

I go about my business, I'm 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, I put the cap back on

I know you hate it, when I leave the light on

I pick a book up, and then I turn the sheets down

And then I take a deep breath, and a good look around

Put on my pj's, and hop into bed

I'm half alive, but I feel mostly dead

I try and tell myself it'll all be all right

I just shouldn't think any more tonight, 'cause

Dreams last so long

Even after you're gone

And I know, that 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
