Motel, sittin in the dark
Empty room like an empty heart
Lovers stop, but they never stay
They dont look back as they drive away

Maybe I
Should fix this broken neon light
Fill in the cracks and paint it bright
And maybe love will stop here tonight

<CHORUS>
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 these are the days
When all that I can do is dream
But I dont wanna spend forever
Livin in the in between
I'm stuck here in a place without love
And I just can let it stay this way
But for now im gonna have to face it
These are the days

Gotta use this 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 lookin for the same thing
And i'ts all the wondering
Waitin for someone to share this feeling

<CHORUS>

These are the days between your hopes and fears
These are the moments that are still incear
I'ts still uncertain if she will appear
Like it or not this is what I got

Ohh cause

2X
But these are the days
When all that I can do is dream
But I dont wanna spend forever
Livin in the in between
I'm stuck here in a place without love
And I just can let it stay this way
But for now im gonna have to face it
These are the days
