Song Lyrics

I hear the clock, it's six a.m.
You 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 for 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

I call my mom, but she was out for a walk
Consoled a cup of coffee, but it didn't want to talk so I
Picked up the 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, I was sad, yeah
It only made me miss you, oh, so bad 'cause

Dreams last for 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

I go about my business and 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 turn the sheets down, yeah
And take a good, long look around
Put on my pj's and hopped into bed
I'm half alive, but I feel mostly dead, I
I try and tell myself it'll be alright
I shouldn't think anymore tonight 'cause

Dreams last for 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
Yeah
