Amelia - Justin Cross

Late night, driving on the interstate honey

And the hotel’s coming into view

I’ve been thinking 'bout you all night

Girl, I’ve been thinking 'bout you all night

Closed up, listening to the cars as they’re

Rolling down the road and we’re running through your yard

It’s only in my mind and I can’t sleep

Busy reaching for the things that I can’t keep

I can only pray that you can hear me say

Amelia, Amelia

You are my only way home

Why you gotta leave me on my own

'Cause I don’t feel as close to heaven when you’re gone

When you’re gone

Late night, smoke-ring from a cigarette

That’s stuck inside the mouth of a woman at the bar

She likes it but its killing her inside

The both of us are only trying to hide

What has control

Tossed up, listening to the band sing

A number of their own, but I don’t think I relate

'Casue I would give up anything in sight

If I could only be with you tonight

I can only pray that you will hear me say

Amelia, Amelia

You are my only way home

Why you gotta leave me on my own

'Cause I don’t feel as close to heaven

When you’re gone

Oh, let me come home to you one day

If only for a while, I need to see you smile when you see my face

Oh, baby, your ghost is growing old

And I really need someone to hold

Amelia, Amelia

You are my only home

Why you gotta leave me on my own

'Cause I don’t feel as close to heaven

When you’re gone
