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

Far Away

This song is for Ryan ...

This time, this place
Misused, mistakes
Too long, too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know,
you know, you know

I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know,
you know, you know

I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

So far away (so far away)
Been far away for far too long
So far away (so far away)
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know

I wanted
I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed
I need to hear you say

That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go

(Keep breathing)
Hold on to me and never let me go
(Keep breathing)
Hold on to me and never let me go
