dying to see you

She's staying in the city over break
But it feels like she's a thousand miles away
Staying inside for god knows how long
Even god knows, she should be right next to me

Last Tuesday, you wanted to see me
And Wednesday, i saw you over the wire and not
In my arms, tucked under the blankets
Watching movies on our anniversary

If we both disappear into the night
And run away together, we could get so far away
'Cause I see you when I close my eyes
I'd keep them shut forever if it meant I'd see you one more time

I'm learning what I can and cannot take
And I can't take you somewhere we'll be safe
Learning to tell what's right and wrong
It isn't right that you aren't beside me

This Monday, you waved goodbye
Last Thursday, the rest of your shows had got
Delayed, postponed until may
And that's how I missed your play

If we both disappear into the night
And run away together, we could get so far away
'Cause I see you when I close my eyes
I'd keep them shut forever if it meant I'd see you one more time

I'm dying to keep you in my sight
Wouldn't it be better if we hadn't met today?
And it's not enough to speak to you online
When your head's not on my shoulder
But instead on the screen's other side

This week, I could've been on a plane
And the silence is driving me insane
Maybe in a different time and place

If we both disappear into the night
And run away together, we could get so far away
'Cause I see you when I close my eyes
I'd keep them shut forever if it meant I'd see you one more time

I'm dying to keep you in my sight
Wouldn't it be better if we hadn't met today?
And it's not enough to speak to you online
When your head's not on my shoulder
But instead on the screen's other side

I can't survive without your guide
You know when this is over, that I'll be the one to stay
But, right now i think I'd rather die
If we go at the same time, then yesterday won't be the last time
