I woke up today
The way I do every day
Reaching out for you
The one I always reach out to
But you weren’t there
Just like yesterday, and every day before

So I picked up the phone
Cause I was feeling so alone
Just to call and talk to you
Like I always do…
But the numbers wouldn’t come to mind
Just like yesterday, and every day before

I think I’ll drive to your place
Just to see your face
I’ve missed it oh so much
I long for your touch
But I just sit in my car, not knowing where to go
Just like yesterday, and every day before

I guess I’ll just lie back down to sleep
A slumber that becomes ever so sweet
But I lack the dreams I use to dream
Each dream frazzled at the seams
So I just lay there looking at my white ceiling
Just like yesterday, and every day before

One day I think I might come to find
The reason you’re always on my mind
Is because you’re so far away
And I search for you every day
But there’s nothing to search for…

You never were, never was, never will be
And still I wait impatiently
In my bed, by the phone, in my car
And I still don’t really know who you are
But you are there right?

                                       You are there, right?

I woke up again today
The way I do every day
Reaching out for you
The one I always reach out to
But you weren’t there
Just like yesterday, and every day before
