S.O.S.

my heart skipped a beat
 that night before we said goodbye
 did you catch it?
 please say you caught it
 as i looked in your eyes
 i grabbed every sigh
 please don't forget to breathe
 because it's killing me
 the moon was gone for hours
 when we were winding down
 we should have stayed up longer
 but your eyes were tired, i know
 please understand that i'll be back
 if you're still around, that's where i'll be
 you have my thoughts and you have my words
 but the road has my contempt
 pavement hisses me to sleep
 as we drive away
 the hardest part was touching your face
 and knowing i had to let go
 chalk another
 mile to the board of separation
 strange towns make the best of my sickness
 when the cure's so far away
 it seems so sad
 but time's not flying tonight
 my heart skipped a beat
 that night before we said goodbye
 did you catch it?
 please say you caught it
 as i looked in your eyes
 i grabbed every sigh
 please don't forget to breathe
 because it's killing me
 the moon was gone for hours
 when we were winding down
 we should have stayed up longer
 but your eyes were tired, i know
 please understand that i'll be back
 if you're still around, that's where i'll be
 you have my thoughts and you have my words
 but the road has my contempt
 wish that i could catch a shooting star home right now
 but we're moving too fast can't slow down
 no one cares just how i feel
 your sleep time twitches shake the world and
 make sandmen sing, settle nerves and tell me you're dreaming.
 there's still some time to think
 it seems so sad
