Album: World Wide Open (2009)

Me Without You

Like a thunder cloud without a chance of rain,
Like a stretch of sandy beach without the waves,
It's like I'm spinnin' my wheels down a lonely interstate,
Me without you.

It's a picture perfect sky without a view,
It's an empty seat at a table for two,
It's havin' all the time in the world and nothin' to do,
Me without you.

[CHORUS]
I've been lovin' you so long
I'm a leaf lost in the wind.
I wanna be so strong
But I don't know how to begin.
So I keep holdin' on
'Cause I don't know what else to do,
I try to be, but I'm not me, without you.

It's a beautiful song to be sung,
But no one to sing.
It's this beat up old guitar,
Missin' a string.
It's me callin' in the middle of the night
And it just rings.
Me without you.

[CHORUS]
And I've been lovin' you so long
I'm a leaf lost in the wind.
I wanna be so strong,
But I don't know how to begin.
So I keep holdin' on
'Cause I don't know what else to do,
I try to be, but I'm not me, without you.

And baby tonight I'm gonna light your favorite candle,
I'm gonna open a bottle of my favorite Spanish wine,
Gonna listen to the song that we made love to the first time,
Somethin' I can do,
Somethin' I can do,

[CHORUS]
When I been lovin' you so long,
I'm a leaf lost in the wind.
I wanna be so strong,
But I don't know how to begin.
So I keep holdin' on
'Cause I don't know what else to do,
I try to be, but I'm not me, without you.
I can try to be, but I'm not me, without you.
