Me Without You Lyrics

I wanna fit inside of your head, I wanna say what's never been said to impress you and maybe you could find the time
I wanna sing the song that's never been sung, I wanna do what's never been done
Catch your attention, lock it up and keep it all mine
I got to make you believe that you are oh so good for me

CHORUS
Cause me without you is like a shoe with no laces
Trying to find the part to something nothing replaces
Face cards with no aces, baseball with no bases
I just can't face it if you're moving on
I'm sittin here trying and I can't understand it
Get the feeling that I just cannot come up empty handed Without you I feel stranded, abused and abandoned and I just can't stand it girl I gotta show you
That I can't go back to me without you

Oh, yeah

I wanna stand at the front the front of your line
I wanna write your name right next to mine
You gotta see it to believe it, you can take it you can leave it but before I guarantee it I know
I got to make you believe that you are oh so good for me

That I can't go back - without you

It would take all of me to turn around and go back to you-less useless oh, and it just feels so right
You've made up my mind with all that you are
Oh, yeah. It's like a, it's like a...

A courtroom with no cases
High speed with no chases
A trail with no traces
Track meet with no races
Drums without basses
Crooked teeth with no braces
Me without you is like flowers out of vases
Or a world with no races
A desert oasis
Things changing phases while in homeostasis
Mug shots with no faces
A pen that erases
Tryin to read between the lines, but the line's got no spaces
A calm man who still paces
A pain that embraces
Girl, you know you're something that nothing replaces
I will do what I gotta just to be in your graces
I'm sorry that I'm out of metaphorical phrases
But I still wanna tell you just how much it amazes me every time I think about how pretty your face is
It feels so wrong it feel so out of place if, you drop my hand and you walk away

Me without you. That's me without you

How to Format Lyrics:
