i'm sorry that it took so long
to write this song
but i gave up
you see one million words can't describe
how it feels
to know your love

where did i go wrong?
i should have told you from the start
that i'm closer then you think
when we're apart
nothing that i've tried
is as simple as this line

but without you
my life is incomplete
my days are absolutely gray
and so i'll try
let your heart know for sure
that i have so much more to tell you
every single day

i swear i'm giving up my inside
to the one
that i adored
i know this world is big enough
for you and i
but i'll give you more

i'm coming home today
to wipe the tears out from your eyes
i'm totally enamored by your life
nothing that i've done
has ever been for one

but without you
my life is incomplete
my days are absolutely gray
and so I'll try
let your heart know for sure
that i have so much more to tell you
every single day

my life is incomplete
my rites are absolutely gone
so wake me up
before you leave today
something i need to say
cause they'll be nothing when you're gone

    General Comment:This is probably everyones favorite No Use For A Name song. It's easy to relate to. Anyone besides me think he sounds like the lead singer from The Ataris?

    General Comment:This is about the typical no use for a name song... it rocks though. I think the music sounds just great with the words, simple but great. Its hard to get the song out of your head.. but if you just read the lyrics... I don't know.. kinda corny, don't you think?

    General Comment:Great song, bad sound. I don't like bands that every song sound so boring, like a man teaching you world history and his voice pitch doesn't change.

    General Comment:one of those songs that you know it so well because you have listened to it over and over but you can probably know the song while you're asleep great song from a very orginal name for a band.
