As you lay sleeping you’re miles away
I wake up with the daylight to pull down the shades
Back to your empty arms crying
I wish you had stayed
As you lay dreaming, alone in your bed
Caressing the pillow that was me instead
“We have to stay strong.”
Those were the words that you said
And I’ll be strong if you’ll be stronger
Chorus:
And it’s the time between us
Time between us
Time between us
Yeah
As the days go by they go slowly by
I ask you a question to which you reply,
“My head is not changed
I just want to be by your side.”
So I close my eyes and imagine your face
And my hands follow blindly to where yours once traced
It’s cold, yes it’s cold, I know, but it must take your place
And I’ll be strong if you’ll be stronger
(Chorus)
And I’ll be strong
Yes I’ll be strong
I’ll be strong if you’ll be stronger
(Double chorus)
