ONE THOUSAND RAINDROPS

Since you’ve been gone
Life is just an if
You were my every thing
Now you’re the only thing I miss

Bored is my destination
My journey has no end
Not only have I lost my lover
I’ve also lost my friend

How could today be so different
I feel like yesterday never came
Its like I went from love
To love without you…and

If I counted one thousand raindrops
It wouldn’t kill enough time
To get over the pain
Or get you off my mind

And if I saw one thousand sunrises
It wouldn’t stop the fact
I want to cry out loud
That I miss you more than that

Now I can’t explain it
Because no one really cares
Everyone has their problems
And they don’t need a spare

So I look in every direction
Hoping an answer will come
To help me go from being solo
To us being back at one

How could today be so different
I feel like yesterday never came
Its like I went from love
To love without you…and

If I counted one thousand phone calls
You never returned
I would still make one more phone call
To try and get one more turn

And if I saw one thousand signs
No matter what they say
They would signal I need you here
Right now right away

If I counted one thousand raindrops
It wouldn’t kill enough time
To get over the pain
Or get you off my mind

...one thousand one, one thousand two
I'll keep counting raindrops  until I'm back with you
