For the Meantime

(album: Great Escape - 2009)

Everyday that I don't see your face is a tragedy and
Time away could be time staring into your eyes
Everyday that I don't see your face feels forever to me
And all the while I'm away you'll be there on my mind

And we might find, in our lifetime
When the lights go out, that the tears fill up in our eyes
But it's only for the meantime
And before too long I will be right there at your side

Everyday that I don't see your face is a tragedy and
I'm afraid that we might lose the feeling inside
Because there's no other sound that can make me go weak at knees
like the sound of your voice on the end of a line

And we might find, in our lifetime
When the lights go out, that the tears fill up in our eyes
But it's only for the meantime
And before too long I will be right there at your side...
For a while
