what do the words of by jordanshuparski on emaze

What do the lyrics mean to you:
To me the lyrics of this song is about hopeless love. This man wants to change his life and love this girl of his dreams and prays for them. He says she is his heaven and explains heaven isn't all that far away, basically telling her he would take a bullet for her, until it turns around and he realizes it is hopeless. He loves spending his weekends with her but he doesnt want to waste his time if shes using him or doesnt love him back. its rare to see them together like rain in the desert as he describes in the song. He knows he cant force her to love him. he finds out she doesn't love him that much and doesn't or cant be with him no more.

MOOD:
This song brings out the moods of a broken heart/sadness because this man has put so much effort into her but she doesn't want him. also confused as to why the love of his dreams does not love him back, hopeless because he knows she will never love him the way he loves her and cannot make her love him back. The feeling of depression is also in this song as to losing something important to him and feeling broken

Some say that this song is pop/rock. This song does only include piano to create the backround instruments. It gives a huge part in the song. rather to say that their are only vocals and piano in this song, it does sound like their are more than one person playing piano because there are so many different motions and speeds its played at. Fast, slow and both.

INTRO/CHORUS
A drop in the ocean A change in the weather I was prayin' that you and me might end up together It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert But I'm holding you closer than most Cause you are my heaven

VERSE 1
I don't want to waste the weekend If you don't love me, pretend a few more hours Then its time to go And as my train rolls down the east coast I wonder how you keep warm It's too late to cry Too broken to move on

Pre-chorus
And still I can't let you be Most nights I hardly sleep Don't take what you don't need from me

CHORUS
It's just a drop in the ocean A change in the weather I was prayin' that you and me might end up together It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert But I'm holding you closer than most Cause you are my heaven

VERSE 2
Misplace trust in old friends Never counting regrets By the grace of God, I do not rest at all And New England as the leaves change The last excuse that I'll claim I was a boy who loved a woman like a little girl

PRE-CHORUS
And still I cant let you be Most nights I hardly sleep Don't seek what you don't need from me

BRIDGE
Heaven doesn't seem far away Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore no no Heaven doesn't seem far a way *A-ooh. A-ooh*

CHORUS
A drop in the ocean A change in the weather I was prayin' that you and me might end up together It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert But im holding you closer than most, cause you are my heaven You are my heaven
