Motel, sitting in the dark
Empty room like an empty heart
Lovers stop but they never stay
They don't look back as they drive away
Maybe I should fix this broken neon light
Fill in the cracks and paint it bright
Then maybe love will stop here tonight
And if she knocks on my door
I'll give her the key
Just one look in her eyes and I know
I'll be everything that she sees in me
More than I ever thought I could be but
Chorus:
These are the days
When all that I can do is dream
But I don't wanna spend forever
Living in the in-between
I'm stuck here in a place without love
And I just can't let it stay this way
But for now I'm gonna have to face it
These are the days
I gotta use the lonely time
To change the picture in my frame of mind
Outside the window there's a sunny day
I wanna feel it on my face
You and I, we're out here looking for the same
Thing, and ends to all the wondering
Waiting for someone to share this feeling
And if she knocks on my door
I'll give her the key
Just one look in her eyes and I know
I'll be everything that she sees in me
More than I ever thought
I could be but
Chorus
These are the days between
Your hopes and fears
These are the moments
That are still unclear
When it's still uncertain
If she will appear
But like it or not
This is what I got
Chorus
