Because when I’m with you time melts away
But when I’m without you it turns to minutes to seconds to days
And I didn’t get enough time with you again
Because I will be missing you always
It’s like every second without you
Is another second that I waste of life
And maybe you’ll never know
How much you mean to me
But maybe that’s how you want it to be

So forget what you think you know about me
I’m waiting for the day that you’ll finally see
That you mean everything to me
That you mean everything to me

And maybe I’m crazy
At least that’s what all my friends say
Giving up everything for a girl
That has yet to pass a smile along my way
But I know how much you mean to me
And I know that deep inside you feel it to
So just tell me when and ill run to you
Because as they say its better to have loved and lost
Then to have never loved at all
And what better love to lose than the love of you

So forget what you think you know about me
I’m waiting for the day that you’ll finally see
That you mean everything to me
That you mean everything to me
