Verse 1
Back there somewhere, I can hear her calling out, I've got so much I can tell her.
She knows I miss her, I know she thinks about me too, I just cannot wait to kiss her.
Verse 2
I think she likes me, I can see it when she laughs, she won't say it but I see it.
She loves to wake me, just to see if i'm asleep, just to tell me to move closer
