You told me today that you're going to be leaving. Not too soon but too soon for my preference. I have just found you again and now you're leaving. How can I miss so much what I never really had? I feel like I am playing in a losing game. One game where there is no winner for we are both losers. I think that I miss you already. How sad is that? Two days of reunion and I already miss you. Somehow I feel like I may have found the unobtainable and now only to have it slip through my hands. Maybe if I pretend to not care it won't feel this way.... Who knows maybe I should just leave it all behind.... Why is it that when you care for someone it always means getting hurt? Maybe a small cut or a wound to the heart there is always pain and that's how I know I care. I guess I just care too much!

MAT KEARNEY LYRICS

"All I Need"

Here it comes it's all blowing in tonight
I woke up this morning to a blood red sky
They're burning on the bridge turning off the lights
We're on the run I can see it in your eyes
If nothing is safe then I don't understand
You call me your boy but I'm trying to be the man
One more day and it's all slipping with the sand
You touch my lips and grab the back of my hand
The back of my hand

[chorus]
Guess we both know we're in over our heads
We got nowhere to go and no home that's left
The water is rising on a river turning red
It all might be OK or we might be dead
If everything we've got is slipping away
I meant what I said when I said until my dying day
I'm holding on to you, holding on to me
Maybe it's all gone black but you're all I see
You're all I see

The walls are shaking, I hear them sound the alarm
Glass is breaking so don't let go of my arm
Grab your bags and a picture of where we met
All that we'll leave behind and all that's left
If everything we've got is blowing away
We've got a rock and a rock till our dying day
I'm holding on to you, holding on to me
Maybe it's all we got but it's all I need
You're all I need

And if all we've got, is what no one can break,
I know I love you, if that's all we can take,
the tears are coming down, they're mixing with the rain,
I know I love you, if that's all we can take.

A pool is running for miles on the concrete ground
We're eight feet deep and the rain is still coming down
The TV's playing it all out of town
We're grabbing at the fray for something that won't drown
