In Between

It’s a quarter past seven and I’m still waiting
Reaching for the phone even when it doesn’t ring.
I pick it up and say “hello” to a dial tone
I guess when you’re in love you do some crazy things.

I wait up for hours and wish on every star
Making sure I’ve wished on the right one
That will make all my dreams come true.
Yeah, I guess I would do anything for you.

I go to school the next morning to see you in the hall
How it fills me with such happiness when I see you smile.
It makes me feel like the special one. I did that for you.
That smile on your face, yeah that’s my affect on you.

No, I can’t stay mad that you didn’t call me last night
Because I feel your arms around me and I forget
Why was I ripping up those pieces of paper again?
Oh well. Who cares? I just need you now as a good friend.

Pick me up when I am down, that’s all I ask from you
When I’m tired, hold me up, be loyal to me too
Pop in my favorite movie. Let’s sit back and enjoy
We don’t need any words to fill up this void.

I’d do anything for you. I would sacrifice it all
If it gave you one moment of greatness
That never led you to a fall
Yeah, I would sacrifice it all.

All I ask in return is when I’m tired pick me up
Hold me in your arms and carry me off.
I’m not asking for too much am I?
Just a strong hand and a caring eye. That’s all.


Will you be my best friend? From now until the end
Will you be there forever? For me to count on times again?
I’m not asking for commitment. Just a helping hand
You’re the only one that always understands.

So say we’ll run together, out into the pouring rain
If we get some crazy ideas, well then let us go insane.
Because love knows no boundaries. Love’s not a crime
And if it is, baby, together lets do the time.

It’s twenty past seven and I’m still waiting for the ring
That lets me know you still love me
Even after all this time that has fallen
In-between.
