I get lost, messed up and bored
When I'm alone too long
I can't sleep, function and eat
When I'm not with someone

Late last fall she ended it all
And moved to who knows where
Just like that she vanished and packed
And never even called

Do you feel a certain sense of synergy
Between yourself and me?
A kind of macabre and somber
Wonder twin type of harmony

What if it was you?
You that I needed all along
I felt like a fool
Kicking and screaming
And pretending we were wrong

Let's get wrecked on Pop-Tarts and sex
And see the Taj Mahal
Let's save birds from Prince William Sound
And skateboard through the mall

Let's fight crime with mangoes and limes
And join the PGA
Let's win big with every spin
But hurry I can't wait

Do you spend a fortune on those late night
Prepaid television scams
In search of the perfect blender
Steak knife and nonstick frying pan?

What if it was you?
You that I needed all along
I felt like a fool
Thinking we were completely wrong

It seemed like a dream
A beautiful scream
That echoed forever
And made us not afraid to feel a thing

And after it ends
We'll try to be friends
They say that what doesn't kill us
Makes us who we are

All this time and every thing's changed
But I still feel the same
All good things eventually end
And get washed down the drain

What a disaster it would be
If you discovered that I cared
A little too much for friends
But not enough to share

What if it was you?
You that I needed all along
I felt like a fool
Now that I'm sure that I was wrong

It had to be you
It had to be you
It had to be you
I knew it was you
