I hear the clock, it's 6 a.m. I feel so far from where I've been I got my eggs, I 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 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 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 want to 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 wasn't the same Cause it was happy and I was sad It made me miss you oh so bad 'cause Dreams last 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 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 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 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 be all right I just shouldn't think anymore tonight 'cause Dreams last so long, even after you're gone I know you love me and soon I know you will see You were meant for me and I was meant for you You were meant for me and I was meant for you
