Tell me how hard I squeeze
To hold on to a good thing
It'd kill me to know I'm
Digging my nails in you skin
Maybe the coast seems so far away;
But i've got enough love
For us both these days
Darling I know how you hate goodbyes;
But you wrote that that's the same moon in the sky
And sleeping beneath it; distance can't change
Some things stay the same
When a plane fly's by
Just know that I
Will just as easily
Come and see you
And when the sun sets west,
Just send your best
Cause in only 2 hours;
I'll see it too;
See it just like you
Just like you
I'm starting to think that
Maybe love can't be summed up;
There's no way you're just
Chemicals in my brain;
I'll try to put love in the things that I say
Maybe a song will come for a change
Even when apart for months
And I'm dying just to see you one
I'll still say;
I can't complain
When a plane fly's by
Just know that I
Will just as easily
Come and see you
When the sun sets west, just send your best
cause in only 2 hours;
I'll see it too;
See it just like you;
Just like you
When a plane fly's by
Just know that I
Will just as easily
Come and see you
Just hold on,
You've got his song
I'll try to love no matter what I go through
So I'll be just like you
Just like you
Just like you
I wanna be just like you.
