Story Behind The Song
I happened to look at the clock one day in the afternoon when it was 2:22 and I was dreaming about this date I had that night. The guy ended up never calling and I went out anyway and got into bed later that night, looked over at the clock and it was exactly 2:22 again. I said out loud to myself, "It's 2:22 and I'm missing you." And you just have to write a song with a hook like that...

Lyrics
1:10 in the morning, the phone rings in the front room
I'm kinda half asleep when I hear "Better wake up cuz I'm comin soon" and oh
I'm not sure why you're standing here
But oh...your fiery eyes and your hands are makin things quite clear
I tell you I don't love you, I tell you you are not my type
I say that we should just stay friends and you say
Let's decide in the morning light and oh
I'm not sure why I let you in
Didn't think I would but you feel so good
And I've got too damn many friends
So now it's 2:22 and I'm kissing on you
Undressing sweet caressing long overdue
I wonder why tonight's the night you found to come through
Either way I'm finding myself lost in you
at 2:22
1:00 in the afternoon I can still smell your skin on mine
I told you I won't be your fool you said "Let's decide when you see me tonight" and oh
I know I should not let you in
No it's not wise it's a compromise and I can't wait to do it all again
So now it's 2:22 and I'm blissing on you
Wonder if tonight will be a sweet deja vu
And I could give you something that is long overdue
And I could even love you just for coming through
at 2:22
10:00 in the evening, the phone sits in the front room
The bed is made my legs are shaved and
There is still no sight of you but oh
I listen for you at my door and oh
Sometime today I guess I wanted more
But it's 2:22 and I'm missing you
Hard to find a reason there's no way but through
I guess I thought a love like this was long overdue
I guess I just don't wanna lie here without you
At 2:22
Yes it's 2:22 and I'm waiting for you...
