Intro

    
    

Verse 1

I hear the clock, it's six a.m.
I feel so far from where I've been
I got my eggs, I got my pancakes too
I've 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
Wipe the spots off of the mirror, don't leave my keys in the door
I never put wet towels on the floor anymore 'cause

Chorus

Dreams last 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

Verse 2

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 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 oh, I was sad and
It made me miss you, oh so bad 'cause

Chorus

Dreams last 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

Bridge

I go about my business, I'm doin' 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

Instrumental

    
    

Verse 3

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 then I turn the sheets down
And then I take a deep breath, a good look around
Put on my pj's and hop into bed
I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead
I, I try and tell myself it'll all be alright
I just shouldn't think anymore tonight 'cause

Chorus

Dreams last 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

Outro

Yeah, you were meant for me
and I was meant for
You ..............
