Song Lyrics

I never knew that I was standing in the rain
My mind was wandering back to you again
There's a thousand miles between us
Though it feels a thousand more 'cause tonight I sleep alone

I never realized how time could drag on
I never thought about how long the days are
And I never heard my heart beat
Till the first night you were gone then I knew I was alone

When I close my eyes and I think of you
I don't feel so bad, I don't feel so blue
When I need you here, all I do
I close my eyes and I'm with you

I could see miracles, they wouldn't mean a thing
I don't want memories, if you're not part of them
Any photograph without you would never grace my wall
I don't wanna stand alone

When I close my eyes and I think of you
I don't feel so bad, I don't feel so blue
When I need you here, all I do
I close my eyes and I'm with you, oh, yeah

Then I see you there and I visualize
Both of us touching, both of us searching
Then I hold you here, I can feel you now
I'm lost in the moment, lost in the moment

And I can't let go 'cause I won't let go
I will keep holding, I will keep holding
When I clear my eyes to wipe away my tears
Everything shatters, everything's gone

When I close my eyes and I think of you
I don't feel so bad, I don't feel so blue
When I need you here, all I do
I close my eyes and I'm with you
