You Were Meant for Me

Sometimes music can say the words we never could. My hopes ...

I hear the clock, it's six a.m.
I feel so far 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, don't leave the keys in the door
I never put wet towels, on the floor anymore 'cause

Dreams last for so long, even after you're 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 didn't wanna talk
So I picked up a paper, it was more bad news
More hearts being broken, 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, oh I was sad and
It made me miss you oh so bad 'cause

Dreams last for 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, Iput 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
Take a deep breath and a good look around
Put on my pjs and hop into bed
I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead
I try and tell myself it'll be all right
I shouldn't think anymore tonight 'cause

Dreams last for so long, even after you're 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
