Gloriana – Kissed you goodnight (Dedication)


“(Kissed You) Good Night” by Gloriana

I dropped you off
Just a little after midnight
Sat in my car
Till you turned off your porch light
I should have kissed you
I should have pushed you up against the wall
I should have kissed you
Just like I wasn’t scared at all

I turned off the car
Ran through the yard
Back to your front door
Before I could knock
You turned the lock
And met me on the front porch

And I kissed you
Goodnight
And now that I’ve kissed you
It’s a good night good night baby goodnight

You couldn’t see me
Watching through the window
Wondering what went wrong
Praying that you wouldn’t go
You should have kissed me
You should have pushed me up against the wall
You should have kissed me
I was right on the edge and ready to fall

So I turned off the car
Ran through the yard
Back to your front door
Before I could knock
You turned the lock
And met me on the front porch

And I kissed you
Goodnight
And now that I’ve kissed you
It’s a good night good night baby goodnight

I turned off the car
ran through the yard
back to your front door
Half scared to death can’t catch my breath
Aren’t these the moments we live for

And I kissed you
Goodnight
And now that I’ve kissed you
It’s a good night good night baby goodnight
It’s a good night good night baby goodnight
It’s a good night good night baby goodnight
It’s a good night good night baby goodnight

Constant reminders


 

Dash Berlin-  Till the sky falls down

It’s been so long since I have touched you
I can’t remember how it feels
To have your loving arms around me
This is the pain I’ve never healed

All my life I have been searching
For someone honest just like you
You left me here without a reason
Every tear belongs to you

I’ll be waiting
’till the sky falls down
’till you’re coming around, baby

I’ll be waiting
’till the sky falls down
let the rain clouds come

I’ll be waiting
’till the sky falls down
’till you’re coming around

All I need is one good answer
To understand why you are gone
Everything reminds me of you
Without you I can’t go on

‘ll be waiting
’till the sky falls down
’till you’re coming around, baby

I’ll be waiting
’till the sky falls down
let the rain clouds come

You would think that I am not living my life as much as I post about her, but I actually am because I work for myself… so I am with myself all hours of the day and am able to take breaks at my own leisure.

Daughtry – Losing my mind


So I heard this song tonight while in the car downtown writing in my journal, and I heard the narrative, and I was reminded of Ashley…

I can’t help it the girl is still in my head.  I can’t help it that she randomly pops into my head at different times through the day.  Sometimes, some days more than others, it hits me harder.  Anyway, I immediately felt a sadness tonight… not necessarily a “melancholy,” but a sadness, longing, reminiscing, grief-like feeling.

I am sure there is one word for what I’m trying to say, but I can’t think of it.

Anyway, here are the lyrics:

“Losing My Mind” by Daughtry

Never thought a train goin’ any place could’ve changed my life
Never thought I’d say I could go insane, ’til I saw your eyes
And I had to take another look to know for sure
That you could be for real
You found an empty seat sittin’ next to me
And I asked your name
Where you comin’ from?
Where you headed to this Saturday?
‘Cause I’m gonna be out on the town
As long as you are goin’ there with meYeah and my head keeps spinnin’
You got me trippin’
There’s something about the way you move
Yeah, every little single thing you do is like
One part angel and one part danger
But, oh, the kind of crazy I like
You got me losing my mind
I’m losing my mind!

It’s getting hard to sleep
Getting hard to think ’bout much these days
‘Cause everywhere I go
Only thing I see is your glowing face
And the way you light up every room you walk into
Just makes me want to scream

Yeah and my head keeps spinnin’
You got me trippin’
There’s something about the way you move
Yeah, every little single thing you do is like
One part angel and one part danger
But, oh, the kind of crazy I like
You got me losing my mind
I’m losing my mind!

Can’t understand why you got me so far gone
You’re gonna have to lock me up before too long
You’ve got me losing my mind

Yeah and my head keeps spinnin’
You got me trippin’
There’s something about the way you move
Yeah, every little single thing you do is like
One part angel and one part danger
But, oh, the kind of crazy I like
You got me losing my mind
I’m losing my mind!
You got me losing my mind
I’m losing my mind!

I have kind of been distracted by other things and people, but always, in the back of my mind, is her.  I also know (imagine) it’s strange right now with strangers reading this knowing I am pouring my heart out to some girl, or “woman” perhaps I should say, that’s not even next to me, but she has left a permanent imprint on my heart, and that “passion” between her and I never died… that “connection,” whatever you want to call it.So many people don’t believe… and so many people also run away from their feelings.  So many people don’t believe that things can last and moreover that things can work out, and they can, if you let them.  I truly believe that what “goes around” comes back around.  I trust fate.  I believe that “Everything happens for a reason.”

I try not to spend too much time dwelling in my feelings, but I do reflect from time to time, and I do think about things and try to integrate my experiences in such a way that I can learn from them.  I want to grow, and I am always wanting to grow.  I also have a big heart.

Sometimes I think the worst though, and I think about how someday Ashley is going to tell me that she’s marrying someone else, or perhaps I will hear it through the grapevine and that it’ll break my heart and devastate me.  I promise I am not some psycho crazy “ex” of hers.  Ash and I are almost twins.  Heck, we have the same middle name.

Anyway, I’m out living my life, and I know what I want for myself, which is important.  I am confident to say I know what I what.  I am proud to say that I’ve finally figured it out through a lot of soul searching and experiences.  I have standards now.  I am a much better and stronger person because of what I have learned.

Anyway, I wanted to share this song because it was on my mind tonight…

The Fray – Heartbeat


This is my new favorite song :)

The Fray – “Heartbeat”

We’re on an open bed truck on the highway
The rain is coming down and we’re on the run
Think I can feel the breath in your body
We gotta keep on running ’til we see the sun

Oh you got a fire and it’s burning in the rain
Thought that it went out, but it’s burning just the same
And you don’t look back, not for anything
‘Cause if you love someone, you love them all the same
If you love someone, you love them all the same

Oh, I feel your heartbeat
And you’re coming around, coming around, coming around
If you can love somebody, love them all the same
You gotta love somebody, love them all the same
Singing, oh, I feel your heartbeat

I’m trying to put it all back together.
I’ve got a story and I’m trying to tell it right.
I got the kerosene and a desire.
I’m trying to start a flame in the heart of the night

Oh you got a fire and it’s burning in the rain
Thought that it went out, but it’s burning just the same
And you don’t look back, not for anything
‘Cause if you love someone, you love them all the same
If you love someone, you love them all the same

Oh, I feel your heartbeat
And you’re coming around, coming around, coming around
If you can love somebody, love them all the same
You gotta love somebody, love them all the same
Singing, oh, I feel your heartbeat

Ooh, ooh
I know the memories are rushing into mind
I wanna kiss your scars tonight, baby
‘Cause you gotta try
You gotta let me in
Let me in

Oh, I feel your heartbeat
And you’re coming around, coming around, coming around
You gotta love somebody
You got, you gotta love somebody
You got, you got
Oh, I feel your heartbeat

Oh yeah, oh yeah
Heartbeat

Elliott Yamin – Wait for you


Wow, classic.

“Wait For Youby Elliot Yamin

I never felt nothing in the world like this before
Now I’m missing you
& I’m wishing that you would come back through my door
Why did you have to go? You could have let me know
So now I’m all alone,
Girl you could have stayed
but you wouldn’t give me a chance
With you not around it’s a little bit more then I can stand
And all my tears they keep running down my face
Why did you turn away?
[Bridge]So why does your pride make you run and hide?
Are you that afraid of me?
But I know it’s a lie what you keep inside
This is not how you want it to be

[Chorus]

So baby I will wait for you
Cause I don’t know what else I can do
Don’t tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life

Baby I will wait for you
If you think I’m fine it just ain’t true
I really need you in my life
No matter what I have to do I’ll wait for you

[Verse 2]

It’s been a long time since you called me
(How could you forget about me)
You got me feeling crazy (crazy)
How can you walk away,
Everything stays the same
I just can’t do it baby
What will it take to make you come back
Girl I told you what it is & it just ain’t like that
Why can’t you look at me, your still in love with me
Don’t leave me crying.

[Bridge]

Baby why can’t we just start over again
Get it back to the way it was
If you give me a chance I can love you right
But your telling me it wont be enough

[Chorus]

So baby I will wait for you
Cause I don’t know what else I can do
Don’t tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life

Baby I will wait for you
If you think I’m fine it just ain’t true
I really need you in my life
No matter what I have to do I’ll wait for you

[Bridge]

So why does you pride make you run & hide
Are you that afraid of me?
But I know it’s a lie what your keeping inside
Thats not how you want it to be

Baby I will wait for you
Baby I will wait for you
If it’s the last thing I do

[Chorus]

Baby I will wait for you
Cause I don’t know what else I can do
Don’t tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life

Baby I will wait for you
If you think I’m fine it just ain’t true
I really need you in my life
No matter what I have to do I’ll wait for you

Faberdrive- “By your side”


This guy sincerely cares for this woman and is a good friend. Bless his heart.


Faber Drive- “By Your Side”

I’ll turn off the lights and let you sleep

When you close your eyes,
I’m by your sideRemember the days when we would drive,
Into the night we’d watch the skies, of summer,

Up on the beach to touch our toes,
On soft sand,
My hand, in yours and,Your heart in mine

We had tears in our eyes
Our future’s before us
Our worries behind,
Just you and I

Just close your eyes, relax and dream,

And keep your heart in mine
Even in the hardest times,

Faberdrive – When I’m with you


 

“When I’m With You” by Faber Drive

Saw you walk into the room
Thought I’d try to talk to you
Babe am I ever glad you wanted me, too
It’s been two years to the day
Half the time I’ve been away
I know I’m not there enough but that’s gonna change
’cause I’m coming back
To show you that I’m keeping the promise I made
When I’m with you I’ll make every second count
’cause I miss you
Whenever you’re not around
When I kiss you
I’ll still get butterflies years from now
I’ll make every second count when I’m with you
Yeah we’ve had our ups and down
But we’ve always worked them out
Babe am I ever glad we’ve got this far now
Still I’m lying here tonight
Wishing I was by your side
’cause when I’m not there enough
Nothing feels right
So I’m coming back to show you that
I’ll love you the rest of my life
When I’m with you
I’ll make every second count
’cause I miss you
When ever you’re not around
When I kiss you I’ll still get butterflies years from now
I’ll make every second count
When I’m with you
Whatever it takes I’m not gonna break the promise I made
When I’m with you
I’ll make every second count
’cause I miss youWhen I’m with you
I’ll make every second count
’cause I miss you
Whenever you’re not around
When I kiss you
I’ll still get butterflies years from now
I’ll make every second count
(Make every second count)
When I’m with you
When I’m with you
When I’m with you
When I’m with you

Shinedown – Call me


“Call Me” by Shinedown

Wrap me in a bolt of lightning
Send me on my way still smiling
Maybe that’s the way I should go,
Straight into the mouth of the unknown
I left the spare key on the table
Never really thought I’d be able to say
I merely visit on the weekends
I lost my whole life and a dear friend

I’ve said it so many times
I would change my ways
No, nevermind
God knows I’ve tried

[Chorus]
Call me a sinner, call me a saint
Tell me it’s over I’ll still love you the same
Call me your favorite, call me the worst
Tell me it’s over I don’t want you to hurt
It’s all that I can say. So, I’ll be on my way

I finally put it all together,
But nothing really lasts forever
I had to make a choice that was not mine,
I had to say goodbye for the last time
I kept my whole life in suitcase,
Never really stayed in one place
Maybe that’s the way it should be,
You know I live my life like a gypsy

I’ve said it so many times
I would change my ways
No, nevermind
God knows I’ve tried

[Chorus]
Call me a sinner, call me a saint
Tell me it’s over I’ll still love you the same
Call me your favorite, call me the worst
Tell me it’s over I don’t want you to hurt
It’s all that I can say. So, I’ll be on my way

I’ll always keep you inside, you healed my
Heart and my life… And you know I try.

[Chorus]
Call me a sinner, call me a saint
Tell me it’s over I’ll still love you the same
Call me your favorite, call me the worst
Tell me it’s over I don’t want you to hurt
It’s all that I can say. So, I’ll be on my way
So, I’ll be on my way
So, I’ll be on my way

Crossfade – Invincible


Crossfade – “Invincible”

I memorized all the words for you
But if you only knew
How much that’s just not like me
I wait up late every night
Just to hear your voice
But you don’t know that’s nothing like me

You know I wonder how you already figured out
All these things that I try to hide
All this time i’ve been hoping you don’t find out
All these things that I hide on the inside

I can’t be held responsible
This is all so new to me
Just when I think I’m invincible
You come and happen to me

I want to make sure everything is perfect for you
If you only knew
That’s not like me to follow through
Maybe even give up all these dead end dreams
Just to be with you
But you don’t know that’s nothing like me

Hey yeah I wonder how you already figured out
All these things that I try to hide
All this time i’ve been hoping you don’t find out
All these things that I hide on the inside

I can’t be held responsible
This is all so new to me
Just when I think I’m invincible
You come and happen to me

Now I’m waking up
I’ve finally had enough of this wreck of a lifetime
I never thought I’d survive it
Now I’m taking back
All I gave up for that
Leave my pain behind
Wash these stains from my life

Just when I thought all was lost
You came and made it all okay

I can’t be held responsible
This is all so new to me
Just when I think I’m invincible
You come and happen to me

I can’t be held responsible
This is all so new to me
Just when I think I’m invincible
You come and happen to me

I memorized all the words for you
If you only knew
How much that’s just not like me

The Waifs – The River


 

The Waifs- The River

I stood and watched my daddy die,
no one could help his plight.
He was trying to save our home
on the day that the river rose.

It came alive, I heard them say,
There was nothing we could do as he washed away.

… Running from the heart of it,
right into the core of it.

Running from the heart of it…

I’m the man now, but I’m only seven
Well, it’s been hard since daddy went to heaven.
We’re staying now, my mama said,
He worked this land, his life is here.

Running from the heart of it,
right into the cause of it

Running from the heart…

Won’t you follow me late at night,
to the river where the moon is bright.
We can wash our sorrow down
underneath that shining ground.

We’ll be sitting in the still night air,
can’t you feel our daddy there.
There’s life and death and all this power
underneath these shining stars.

Running from the heart of it,
right into the cause of it

Running from the heart…

“Addicted” by Saving Abel



“Addicted” by Saving Abel

I’m so addicted to
All the things you do
When you’re going down on me
In between the sheets
Or the sound you make
With every breath you take
It’s not like anything
When you’re loving me

Oh girl lets take it slow
So as for you well you know where to go
I want to take my love and hate you till the end

It’s not like you to turn away
From all the bullshit I can’t take
It’s not like me to walk away

I’m so addicted too all the things
You do when you’re going down on me
In between the sheets
Or the sound you make
With every breathe you take
It’s not like anything
When you’re loving me

I know when it’s getting rough
All the times we spend
When we try to make
This love something better than
Just making love again

It’s not like you to turn away
All the bullshit I can’t take
Just when I think I can walk away,

I’m so addicted to all the things
You do when you’re going on me
In between the sheets
Or the sound you make
With every breathe
It’s not like anything

I’m so addicted to the things you do
When you’re going down on me
Or the sound you make with every breath you take
It’s not like anything when you’re loving me
Yeah
When you’re loving me

How can I make it through
All the things you do
There’s just got to be more to you and me

I’m so addicted to all the things you do
When you’re going down on me
In between the sheets
Or the sound you make with every breath you take
It’s not like anything
It’s not like anything

I’m so addicted to
All the things you do
When you’re going down on me

Or the sound you make with every breath
You take it’s not like anything
I’m so addicted to you
Addicted to you

“All we are” by One Republic



“All We Are”
by One Republic

I tried to paint you a picture, the colors were all wrong
Black and white didn’t fit you and all along,
You were shaded with patience, your strokes of everything
That I need just to make it, and I believe that…
Time can tear you apart
But it won’t break anything that you are, you are

We won’t say our goodbyes you know it’s better that way
We won’t break, we won’t die
It’s just a moment of change
All we are, all we are, is everything that’s right
All we need, all we need, a lover’s alibi

I walked a minute in your shoes, they never would’ve fit
I figured there’s nothing to lose,
I need to get some perspective on these words before I write them down
You’re an island and my ship has run aground
Lord knows I’ll fail you time and again,
But you and me we’re alright

We won’t say our goodbyes you know its better that way
We won’t break, we won’t die
It’s just a moment of change
All we are, all we are, is everything that’s right
All we need all we need, a lover’s alibi

Every single day that I can breathe, you change my philosophy
I’m never gonna let you pass me by
So don’t say your goodbyes you know its better that way
We won’t break, we won’t die
It’s just a moment of change

All we are, all we are, is everything that’s right
All we need, all we need, a lover’s alibi

So don’t say our goodbyes you know its better
We won’t break, we won’t die

Thoughts…


“I’m sorry I wasn’t ready to be your friend, but I’m ready now…”

By the way, someone from Lafayette keeps checking my blog every 1-2 days, sometimes a couple times a day.  Could it be… ?

Funny, right after I opened up a blank blog, 3 Doors Down’s “Here without you” song came on:


“Here Without You” – 3 Doors Down

A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don’t think I can look at this the same
But all the miles that separate
Disappear now when I’m dreaming of your face

I’m here without you baby
But you’re still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
But you’re still with me in my dreams
And tonight it’s only you and me

The miles just keep rollin’
As the people leave their way to say hello
I’ve heard this life is overrated
But I hope that it gets better as we go

I’m here without you baby
But you’re still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
But you’re still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl its only you and me

Everything I know, and anywhere I go
It gets hard but it wont take away my love
And when the last one falls
When it’s all said and done
It gets hard but it wont take away my love

I’m here without you baby
But you’re still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
But you’re still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl its only you and me

“This song upsets me. Its really beautiful but it reminds me a friend that passed on. Maybe because we we’re listening to this song on the way to funeral.
I would assume that he has lost a lover/friend.. ”

“Well, I think this is a great love song. It’s about someone who has broken up with his boy/girlfriend, still loves him/her and misses him/her.”

“I think its about that person who (well I’d like to think of it this way) you broke up with either recently or a long time ago. And you later find out or realize that, that person means the whole world to you. Only this time its too dang late. Shes gone and shes so far away and all you can ever do is dream about her, and live for that moment that you will be together in your dreams. Its a sad song, a song of regrets maybe, but generally i think its a sad song.”

“To me, this song is from the point of view of someone that has been left. No matter how much time passes or what they may hear or come to know about the person, they can’t stop loving the one that hurt them.”

“It’s about being with somebody, but not being with them. And being completly in love with them, that you really find it hard to cope without them there.

“He is saying that in his dreams, it’s just him and her, and they can spend the time together, to pass it off as reality for now.”

“This song is about not seeing someone for a long time and you’re without them, you know? I definitely love this song! Haha, my favorite 3 doors down song. It’s such a great song!”

“I believe its about being on the road away from the one you love, and you miss her like hell, and he’s there without her as the song says out on the road(probably on tour) and he dreams about her thats his only way of seeing her for now, so he says that tonights its only him and her, meaning in his dreams, he will be dreaming and thinking of her nonstop and missing her until he sees her again.”

“This song is about being a long way away from the one you love the most. And every night, every day, and everything somehow reminds you of her (or him if you’re female). You can’t stop thinking about her and you know that you’ll see her in your dreams.”

“This song touched me so deeply the first time I heard it. I remember that the guy I cared a lot about at the time told me about it and sent me the lyrics and then I waited for over an hour to hear it on the radio. It was the one song I could ALWAYS listen to, even though it made me sad… and it was my favorite song ever for more than a year. Now I have difficulties listening to it because it brings back painful memories, but I still think it’s one of the most moving songs I’ve ever heard.”

“I love this song soo much, it reminds me of a couple that are far away from each other like maybe the guy being in the army or something and he really misses her and cant wait to be with her again.”

“Its not only about how he can’t live without her, but it’s about how she lied and pushed him away in the first place. He doesn’t want to be in love with her, but he still is.”

“I love this song, it was one of my first favorites and I am still listening to it to this day. Not only do the lyrics have a powerful loving, yet haunting kind of feel to them, the passion Brad puts into his singing really bring out the meaning and emotion in the song, and I love how the song starts off very simple and solemn, with only a guitar going, and slowly builds up the music as the story being told gets deeper and deeper. All with an excellent violin group and chorus in the background to back up the guitar when the song really picks up.

There are so many ways the song can be interpreted…a soldier who’s overseas and missing a loved one back home, a bad breakup, having to part ways with someone special who is now far away, maybe the death of a loved one.

This is what the song means to me, though.

“A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face”

A hundred days have passed since the last time he saw the girl

“A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don’t think I can look at this the same”

Although they were together one time, she must have taken him for granted, because she lied a lot about some unknown issue that steadily drove them apart. He eventually built up an emotional wall to all her stories and lies, until he could not look at her and their relationship the way it once was. He doesn’t think they can be together anymore.

“All the miles that separate
Disappear now when I’m dreamin’ of your face”

He figured the only way they could settle their relationship was to end it, and he had to get as far away from her as possible to keep her off his mind. But now that he’s gone, no matter how far and long he drifts away from her, nothing, not even “All the miles that separate” can help ease his pain, and now that he’s thinking of her, it’s almost like they hadn’t been apart at all, and he’s with her again in his heart.

“I’m here without you baby
But you’re still on my lonely mind”

He’s done what he wanted to, and now he’s distanced himself. But, it’s done no good, because he still can’t stop thinking about her and what they used to have.

“I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
But you’re still with me in my dreams
And tonight, there’s only you and me”

He can’t keep his mind off her, and although they aren’t together, he still is haunted by romatic dreams of their old life and love together, even forsaking all the hurt she put him through. He relishes these dreams, because they offer him a simple way to escape his hurt and be with her alone, all the drama and complications of the rest of the real world gone.

“The miles just keep rollin’
As the people leave their way to say hello”

Thinking that putting more distance between them will help solve his problems, he continues to roll on, each new place offering no less comfort than the last. No idea what the second line “As the people leave their way to say hello” means, though.

“I’ve heard this life is overrated
But I hope that it gets better as we go.”

People have told him that living this life of denial and running away from your problems doesn’t solve your problems, and that is literally and figuratively all he is doing, just running from his problems. The reasons he has decided to move away still are there, and running won’t make them go away. He hopes that he will be able to start over and live a better life nonetheless.

“Everything I know, and anywhere I go
It gets hard but it won’t take away my love
And when the last one falls, when it’s all said and done.
It gets hard but it won’t take away my love”

This is where the song gets very emotional and vibrant.
Deep inside of him, he forgives her and still truly loves her, but the fact still remains that he can’t be with her because of what happened between them. He starts to realize that no matter what he does, and where he goes, he can’t escape the thoughts he has of her and the place she has in his heart, broken as it may be. And after “it’s all said and done”, that place she holds will never fade or be forgotten because of his love. I love the way the violins continue to play and fade into the background as the song ends, instead of ending abruptly, it’s like they are continuing his message that his love will live on.”

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark- If you leave


Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark – If you leave

If you leave, don’t leave now
Please don’t take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we’ll go our separate ways

We’ve always had time on our sides
Now it’s fading fast
Every second every moment
We’ve got to–we’ve gotta make it last

I touch you once I touch you twice
I won’t let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we’d still be friends, someday

If you leave I won’t cry
I won’t waste one single day
But if you leave don’t look back
I’ll be running the other way

Seven years went under the bridge
Like time standing still
Heaven knows what happens now
You’ve got to–you’ve gotta say you will

I touch you once I touch you twice
I won’t let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we’d meet again

I touch you once I touch you twice
I won’t let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we’d still be friends

I touch you once I touch you twice
I won’t let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we’d meet again someday

If you leave
Oh if you leave
Oh if you leave
Don’t look back
Don’t look back

Nickelback – Holding Onto Heaven


“Holding Onto Heaven”

And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
I’ll hold on and hold onI keep listening to my chest
For a beat but there’s nothing left
It’s been a week since I’ve seen you
And I still can’t believe it
‘Cause I’m dying inside alone
And every day we gotta be apart
I’m like a baby with a broken heart

But the second that I’ll see you
You will know how much I need you
Because I’ll never be letting you go
(Well you know I…)I’m lost without you
And there’s nothing I can do
You’re the one I can’t go without
If I ain’t holding on to you then I’ll be holding out forever
I’ve got you now and
I’m not letting go of you
Never be together long enough
‘Cause every moment I’m with you
It’s like I’m holding on to heaven

And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
I’ll hold on, hold on

And if I could write a symphony
Then baby you would be my melody
And you would flow like a river
Slowly going on forever
Like a feather that’s blowing away
Like everyone that needs a fairytale
Like every mother’s love that never fails
Like every game that needs a player
Every sinner needs a savior
I’m the villain you’re willing to save
Now you know why

I’m lost without you
And there’s nothing I can do
You’re the one I can’t go without
If I ain’t holding on to you then I’ll be holding out forever
I’ve got you now and
I’m not letting go of you
Never be together long enough
‘Cause every moment I’m with you
It’s like I’m holding on to heaven

And I’m willing to wait
Just to see you another day
What I’m waiting for
Will wash this pain away
And it’s never too late
(Never too late…)

And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
I’ll hold on and hold on
Now you know why

I’m lost without you
And there’s nothing I can do
You’re the one I can’t go without
If I ain’t holding on to you then I’ll be holding out forever
I’ve got you now and
I’m not letting go of you
Never be together long enough
‘Cause every moment I’m with you
It’s like I’m holding on to heaven

And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
‘Cause every moment I’m with you
It’s like I’m holding on to heaven

And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
‘Cause every moment I’m with you
It’s like I’m holding on to heaven
