    *I figured this out for my girlfriend one night, so she could sing it.  But 
     the lyrics she wrote out are at the bottom, in case any of you guys out there
     feel like giving it a shot.

 LYRICS: (my girlfriend wrote these out, should be pretty close)

VERSE ONE
 I hear the clock, it's 6am
 I feel so far away from where I've been
 Got my eggs, and my pancakes too
 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
 I wipe the spots off of the mirror
 Don't leave the keys in the door
 Never put wet towels on the floor anymore 'cause (D Riff)

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 TWO
 Called my momma, she was out for a walk
 Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk
 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
 Saw a movie it just wasn't the same
 'Cause it was happy and I was sad
 It made me miss you oh so bad (D Riff)

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE THREE (played kinda like chorus)  *kinda = "kind of", it's Texan don't worry 
 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

VERSE FOUR
 Brush my teeth and put the cap back on
 I know you hate it when I leave the light on
 I pick up a book, Turn the sheets down
 Take a deep breath and a good look around

VERSE FIVE
 Put on my pj's and hop into bed
 I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead
 I try and tell myself it'll be all right
 I just shouldn't think anymore tonight (D Riff)

REPEAT CHORUS

• you were meant for me
• you were meant for me (2)
• you were meant for me (3)
