I go through the motions of being with people
|
When deep in my soul, I want to be where you are
|
I know we speak every night
|
But words only go so far, I know
|
|
It feels like an ocean of time we're apart
|
I know that I've said it before
|
But this time when I come home
|
I will stay with you
|
This time's the last time that I'm gonna go
|
|
Just close your eyes, and imagine me home again
|
It isn't so far away
|
Soon I'll be back, and you'll never be alone again
|
This time I mean to stay
|
|
I promise you this time I'll do whatever it takes
|
To stay right by your side
|
I would do anything, I would give you everything
|
'Cause you are everything to me
|
|
But until then
|
Gotta keep our emotions under control
|
It won't be easy to do
|
'Cause all I want to do is kiss you, touch you,
|
Hold you, love you, promise, I promise
|
I promise you, I'll stay with you, but till then
|
|
Just close your eyes, and imagine me home again
|
I mean every word I say
|
Soon I'll be back, and you'll never be alone again
|
This time I mean to stay
|
|
Just close your eyes, and imagine me home again
|
Soon I will be on my way (never gonna go)
|
This time I mean it, you'll never be alone again
|
This time I mean to stay
|
