I hear the clock, it's six AM
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
Wipe the spots up-off the mirror
Don't leave my keys in the door
I never put towels on the floor anymore

'Cause 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

I called my mama, she was out for a walk
Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk
So I picked-up the paper, it was more bad news
More hearts being broken, 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, or I was sad
And it 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, 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 everyday

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 I 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 all be alright
I shouldn't think anymore tonight

'Cause dreams last 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
