I hear the clock, it's 6 a.m.
I feel so far from where I've been
I got my eggs, and my pancakes too
I got my maple syrup, everything but you
Break the yolks, make a smiley face
I kinda like it in my brand new place
Wipe the spots off of the mirror
Don't leave the keys in the door
Never put wet 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

Called my momma, she was out for a walk
Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't want to talk
So, picked up a paper, it was more bad news
More hearts getting broken or people getting used
Put on my coat in the pouring rain
Saw a movie it just wasn't the same
'Cause it was happy, I was sad
It made me miss you, oh so bad 'cause

Dreams last so long, they're 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

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 toothies, put the cap back on
I know you hate it, when I leave the light on
Pick a book up, turn the sheets down
Take a deep breath and a good look around

Pull out on my pj's and get into bed
I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead
I try to tell myself it'll all be all right
I just 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

You were meant for me and I was meant for you
