You Were Meant For Me

Music by Jewel Kilcher
Lyrics by Jewel Kilcher


I hear the clock, it's 6 a.m.
I feel so far away from where I've been
I got my eggs and my pancakes too
I got my maple syrup, everything but you
I break the yolks and make a smiley face
I kinda like it in my brand new place
I wipe the spots off of the mirror
Don't leave the keys in the door
I never put wet towels on the floor anymore

  Chorus
'Cause dreams last for so long even after you're gone
I know you love me and soon you will see
You were meant for me and I was meant for you

I called my mamma, she was out for a walk
Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk
So I picked up a paper, it was more bad news
More hearts being broken or people being used
Put on my coat in the pouring rain
I saw a movie it just wasn't the same
'Cause it was happy oh I was sad
It made me miss you oh so bad

  Chorus

I go about my business, I'm doing fine
Besides, what would I say if I had you on the line
Same old story not much to say
Hearts are broken every day

I brush my teeth and put the cap back on
I know you hate it when I leave the light on
I pick up a book and turn the sheets down
And take a deep breath and a good look around
Put on my pj's and hop into bed
I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead
I try and tell myself it'll be all right
I just shouldn't think anymore tonight

  Chorus

You were meant for me and I was meant for you
