It all started when I saw you glow
Feelings came fast spinning out of control
Wish you were here, wish the feelings could show
How would you know, you know?
The freak kid picked last for the team
Out of his league but a boy can still dream
Turns out she wasn't turned off as it seems
Now they're a team, a team
Where did you go?
I want to know, are you back for good?
Maybe all along I treated you like I should
You can help me pick up the pieces if you would
I won't forget the first day that we met
I hadn't even hit rock bottom yet
Walked towards the light going faster each step
Till I just slept, I slept
Then in a dream you came back to me
And in the morning I could no longer see
That's my dilemma, that's my sick fantasy
You're here with me, with me
Where did you go?
I want to know, are you back for good?
Maybe all along I treated you like I should
You can help me pick up the pieces if you would
Oh, and this is not the first night
Staying up and trying to word everything right
Do you know it's like to have someone steal your heart away?
And oh, I know I've said it all before
Now I'm the idiot standing at your front door
With my hands in my pockets, just trying to steal your heart away
I've looked everywhere
I've looked everywhere
I've looked everywhere
Where did you go?
I want to know, are you back for good?
Maybe all along I treated you like I should
You can help me pick up the pieces if you would
