What We Were Meant For

I scratched my dreams out pencil deep
and watched those colors in my sleep.
Seattle called and called me home
because here in the snow, I'm still so alone.

And I, I think that you've always known.

My heart ran wild through the midnight sky
the night it found yours. The stars alligned.
And I always believed I'd leave all this behind.
But I'm not so sure now that's the future I'll find.

And I, I think that you know...

I can't do this on my own.
I wasn't meant to go on alone.
Seattle's never gonna be a home.
If you're not there.
My hearts too empty and the colors are gone.
The days are too dark and the nights too long.
And all the sparkle in my eyes disappears
if you're not here.
Yeah, when you're not here.

Something came and it took me away.
And it showed me a brighter and lighter day.
And I think it was you. And it was worth the while.
You made me forget how to frown and learn how to smile.

And I, I think that you still know...

I can't do this on my own.
I wasn't meant to go on alone.
And Seattle's never gonna be a home
if you're not there.
My heart's too empty and the colors all gone.
The days are too dark and the nights are too long.
And all the sparkle in my eyes disappears
if you're not here.
Yeah, when you're not here.
