Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And count the days
Let's hope to god
That time flies like they say
Cause this instance
Can distance
My heart from yours tonight
And I'm holding your picture
It's so cold here
Without you, without you
And I need you now
Cause it's killing me
And I wish somehow
You were here with me
When I fall asleep
I feel you with me
Till I fall asleep
And you are with me
Could this be more
I've been up all night
Riding subway lines?
Now we're sleepin on your floor
Can we make this a lifetime
You're all I want right now
Life keeps tellin me I need to go
But what if I wanna stay
Cause I'm lost here without you
Without you
And I need you now
Cause it's killin me
And I wish somehow
You were here with me
When I fall asleep
I feel you with me
Till I fall asleep
And you are with me
I've found a love I never had before you changed me
And I will wait however long it takes
You changed me
You say the words
That I've been thinking
I'll never let you go
And I need you now
Cause it; s killing me
And I wish somehow
You were here with me
When I fall asleep
I feel you with me
Till I fall asleep
And you are with me
You changed me
You changed me
