[Verse 1]
You took the job in July
I took the flight with my name on it
Two different maps in our hands
Still, you kissed me like you meant it
Now your mornings start without me
And my nights get long and empty
I leave the porch light on
Like you might walk up any minute
[Pre-Chorus]
We said, “This is bigger”
Than the ache in our chests
If love can wait in silence
Then love can handle the rest
[Chorus]
Two time zones, one heart (one heart)
Still I miss you day by day
Two time zones, one heart (one heart)
Same love, just far away
I count the hours to your call
(count the hours)
I miss you day by day
[Verse 2]
Your voice comes through in fragments
Train brakes and a crowded sidewalk
You laugh, then the signal breaks
And I’m talking to your echo
I got your hoodie on my chair
You got my ring in your bedside drawer
We keep our promise in small things
Like a door we’re saving for
[Pre-Chorus]
We said, “This is bigger”
Than the ache in our chests
If love can wait in silence
Then love can handle the rest
[Chorus]
Two time zones, one heart (one heart)
Still I miss you day by day
Two time zones, one heart (one heart)
Same love, just far away
I count the hours to your call
(count the hours)
I miss you day by day
[Bridge]
Maybe distance is the price
For the life we both were chasing
But every mile just proves to me
What we built is worth the waiting
So keep your dreams in motion
I’ll keep mine right here for us
When the world lets go of the clock
We’ll come back like it was dust
[Final Chorus]
Two time zones, one heart (one heart)
Still I miss you day by day
Two time zones, one heart (one heart)
Same love, just far away
I count the hours to your call
(count the hours)
I miss you day by day
Two time zones, one heart (one heart)
And I’m yours, no matter where you stay
