Story Behind The Song

Lyrics

You know I'm tired of waiting
A cynics waste of time
Just lookin' for some color,
Someone to draw beyond the lines

Look at how we're livin
Breaking day by day
The hearts and the hopes of all those loves, slipped away
But I won't let you, slip away

Because it's true
I want you
True, I need you
True, when I'm blue I need you

Just lookin' for a reason
Followed all the signs
This thing that we've been looking for can't be found
With maps or guides

It's time to make a play
It's time to take a dive
Just keep on fighting to find our way to the other side
Look for you, on the other side

Because it's true
I want you
True, I need you
True, when I'm blue I need you

Rollin' down that highway
I saw clouds, bearing down on me
Heavy head is fallin' white lines crossin
Dreams not sold for free
Paid for you with tears I shed, to have you for just
One more day, one more day, one more day

Look at how we're livin
Breaking day by day
The hearts and the hopes of all those loves, slipped away
But I won't let you, slip away

Because it's true
I want you
True, I need you
True, when I'm blue I need you
