Suppose that I missed you
Suppose that I cared
And suppose that I've spent all my nights running scared
And suppose that I was never there

And my eyes are screaming for the sight of you
And tonight I'm dreaming of all the things that we've been through
And I can't hold on to you
So I guess I feel lonely, too

Suppose we were happy,
Suppose it was true
And suppose there were cold nights,
But we somehow made it through
And suppose that I'm nothing without you

And my eyes are screaming for the sight of you
And tonight I'm dreaming of all the things that we've been through
And I can't hold on to you
So I guess I feel lonely, too

Slow way down,
This break down's eating me alive
And I'm tired, this fight is fighting to survive

Tell me a secret, (I want it)
Tell me a story, (I need it)
I'll listen attentively,
I'll stay awake all night
Allow me to whisper (so softly)
There's nothing I did mean (please help me)
But it's in my body
It's strong enough to fight (Let's make this right)
Please help me make this right

Suppose that I was wrong,
Suppose you were here
And suppose that I reached out and caught your tears
And suppose this fight just disappeared

My eyes are screaming for the sight of you
And tonight I'm dreaming of all the things that we've been through
And I can't hold on to you
So I guess I feel lonely, too
But I'd rather be here with you

    General Comment:The meaning of this song is pretty obvious, he's had a fight with his partner, and is just wanting her back. It seems like he knows he's the wrong one, the lyrics in the bridge sorta suggest that the fight might have been over him not listening to her or anything.

    It's a great song, and like all John's song, its something I can relate to..

    General Comment:Whoever wrote the lyrics forgot the very last line:
    "But I'd rather be here with you"
    I normally wouldn't say anything, but it's my absolute favorite line, in fact it's what makes this song my favorite on the album.

    General Comment:this is one of my favorite songs on the album and it has so much meaning in my life. This song just pulls you in, you become one with the story and by the end you can feel all the heartbreak and all you want is for him to be happy again.

    gah I love this song so much
