It's a quarter to three I can taste the midnight air
Cause I can't sleep knowing you're somewhere out there
You wouldn't believe what I've been through
Looking for signs and sirens that it's you
It's Saturday night and I'm driving through L.A
Cause the summer breeze outside whispered your name
You wouldn't believe what I've been through
Hoping the stars would to lead me right to you
Four letters on my mind
And I don't know if I can take
Another year of wasted time
And waiting for the one to say
You are mine and I am yours
But right now I am on my way
All I know is you're the future
And this is the before
It's a quarter to five and I'm wide awake again
I wish I was brave but I just can't pretend
But there's not a thing that I won't do
To scour the world until I find the truth
These new city lights are getting to my soul
Cause I can't face the fact we're getting old
But there's not a thing that I won't do
To make every breath I have left count towards you
Four letters on my mind
And I don't know if I can take
Another year of wasted time
And waiting for the one to say
You are mine and I am yours
But right now I am on my way
All I know is you're the future
And this is the before
(It's a quarter to three I can taste the midnight air)
This is the before
(Cause I can't sleep knowing you're somewhere out there)
This is the before
(You wouldn't believe what I've been through)
(Looking for signs and sirens that it's you)
This is the before
