I'm counting down the miles
That are minutes
I'm stuck in them
But I'll never feel alone (never feel alone)
I'm flipping through the pages
Of the places that you and I
Will always call home (always call home)
And it's a little bit longer than last year
That's what you said to me
Post cards of all the places
That you always wanted to be
24 hours til we're gone and on the road
You're the first person I'll share my stories with
When I get home
I keep missing the best part of you (the best part of you)
And if you find yourself lonely
Then hold these postcards closer to you. (closer to you)
We're packed in a van getting lost out on the road
You'll always be the direction that I want to go
So when you wake up will you be there with me?
Cause when I close my eyes, you're the only one I see.
This isn't the best situation, I know that it rings true
Cause late calls and text messages aren't enough for you
Cause your face is always on my mind,
I'm counting down the minutes til I leave this town behind
I keep missing the best part of you (the best part of you)
And if you find yourself lonely
Then hold these words closer to you. (closer to you)
