Love - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I never felt the ache of being alone, never sensed an empty space inside myself

Never felt the urge to fill a void with the presence of someone else

But you uncovered a feeling inside of me, unfamiliar and unique

Created a vacancy within where one never used to be

Dear absentee, dear missing piece

I've missed you since the day we met

Dear truant friend, dear tune stuck in my head

That I can't forget

A lost memory, an errant wish, you were a missing limb

Every morning I had to wake up and realize you were gone all over again

An unfinished sentence, an interrupted thought, a name on the tip of my tongue

An unsent letter, an unopened book, a lyric left unsung

Dear absentee, dear missing piece

I've missed you since the day we met (The day we met)

Dear truant friend, dear tune stuck in my head

Dear you

I've got these feelings inside

Somehow I always knew you'd understand

They've been laying dormant for a lifetime

I'm waking up for the first time

Love

I'm waking up for the first time
