3000

(album: Hold On For Dear Life - 2007)

I've spent all 3000 of these lonely miles
Thinking about you
I've spent all 21 of these painful hours
Reliving our goodbye
I'll spend all of my nights hoping that you will call
'Cause You're worth waking up for

I've climbed all 40 steps of this concrete staircase
Is your future the same as mine
I've framed all 23 of my pictures of us
So please don't forget me
And I'll spend all three months of this next semester
Waiting for Christmas time

Don't crack smiles for three months time
Don't shed a tear from your eyes
Without me there by your side
Without me there by your side

And I'm missing your smile and the look in your eyes
And even the dinners for two
And on all the weekends I go to the movies
And still buy a seat for you
And I still fall asleep hoping that you will call
Cause you're worth waking up for
Worth packing up for
Worth being late for
Worth staying faithful
Worth being alone for
Worth acting dumb for
And worth coming home for
And I can't wait to see you again
I can't wait to see you again
I can't wait to see you again
I can't wait no I can't wait so

Don't crack smiles for three months time
Don't shed a tear from your eyes
Without me there by your side
Without me there by your side

I've spent all 3000 of these anxious miles
Hoping you feel the same
I've spent all 21 of these drawn out hours
imagining our first sight
