Jordin Sparks
Permanent Monday
[Intro]
Mmm, mmm
[Verse 1]
Falling leaves
Like a blanket at my feet
There's a canopy of stars
And I just miss you like crazy
Suddenly the world's too big
And the hours move too slow
And I just wish that you were holding me near
[Verse 2]
Seven days
It feels like a year
You whisper through the line
You know I miss you like crazy
So baby, can you steal a plane, a boat, the fastest train?
You know it just don't feel the same when you're gone
[Chorus]
'Cause every time you go away
The sunshine starts to fade
Frozen by the hands of time into a permanent Monday
Take me back into your arms
And don't ever let me go
'Cause when I see you walk through that door
I'm not lost anymore
I'm home
I'm home
[Verse 2]
I won't sleep
Until you're finally next to me
Can't wait to breathe you in
Don't wanna waste my time dreaming
I just wanna trace your name
Like a whisper on my skin
And never have to say goodbye again
[Chorus]
'Cause every time you go away
The sunshine starts to fade
Frozen by the hands of time into a permanent Monday
Take me back into your arms
And don't ever let me go
'Cause when I see you walk through that door
I'm not lost anymore
I'm home
[Bridge]
'Cause when I feel you right here close to me
Everything is where it's supposed to be
Baby
[Chorus]
Every time you go away
The sunshine starts to fade
Frozen by the hands of time into a permanent Monday
Take me back into your arms
And don't ever let me go
'Cause when I see you walk through that door
I'm not lost anymore
I'm home
[Outro]
I am home, ooh
Yes, I am
Mmm
And I miss you like crazy
