Verse 1
It's 3:25, I can't get to sleep
Cause when I shut my eyes, you haunt my dreams
And I don't want to love you
Or be heartbroken by you
I post on the internet, in hopes you will see
How well I am doing, since the day that you left me
But we both see past it
Cause we always used to laugh about it
Pre Chorus
And since the day you left, I've found a hundred silver linings
But I didn't know losing you, would come with consolation prizes
Chorus 1
Cause I've got blue skies and Cali beaches
Starlight, and sweet victories
And I couldn't be doing better
Without you by my side, but if I had to tell ya
Lonesome nights I stare at the ceiling
Wondering why love is misleading
And I'm scared of sounding selfish and blue
Life is good but it's lonely without you
Verse 2
Behind closed doors, there's a whole other story
I keep quiet with my pride and my glory
And I don't want to give too much away
But I suppose there ain't too much to say
Flashing of photographs, holding back tears
All I ever wanted was to be standing right here
But now I am, no words can be found
To express how lonely I feel now
Chorus 2
'Cause I've got blue skies and Cali beaches
Starlight, and sweet victories
And I couldn't be doing better
Without you by my side, but if I had to tell ya
Lonesome nights I stare at the ceiling
Wondering why love is misleading
And I'm scared of sounding selfish and blue
Life is good but it's lonely without you
Bridge
Without you - holding my hand, being my friend
And telling me how happy you are for me
Life won't be complete, without love or a melody
I guess now I know the song, you really can't have it all
Chorus 3
But at least I've got blue skies and Cali beaches
And I couldn't be doing better, without you by my side but is it worth the medal?
Lonesome nights I stare at the ceiling
Wondering why love is misleading
And I'm scared of sounding selfish and blue

Life is great but it's lonely without you
Life is good but it's lonely without you
It's 3:25, I can't get to sleep
Cause when I shut my eyes, you haunt my dreams
And I don't want to love you
Or be heartbroken by you
I post on the internet, in hopes you will see
How well I am doing, since the day that you left me
But we both see past it
Cause we always used to laugh about it

But I didn't know losing you, would come with consolation prizes
