Here Without You

Speaking with Songfacts about this song, lead singer Brad Arnold said: He wrote this song with his (now-ex) wife as inspiration.He didn't write it for her - there's a difference. He laughs when he talks about how wrong he was with his declaration of "when the last one falls, when all is said and done." "The song's just about being away from someone, or missing them. And it really doesn't matter if you're here without them for all day or all month. It's just kind of about the lonely and missing of somebody, but people kind of take that sort of as a little bit of a sad song. And in a way, I kind of meant it as a happy song. And the reason being because it's talking about being here without you, but she's still with me in my dreams. 'And tonight, it's only you and me,' so the song was really just about that dream. And being in a state of peace, because you've got that person there with you in your sleep. And in that way I kind of meant for it to be a little bit of a happy song." It's One Of The Greatest Hit Song By 3 Doors Down And The Song Have Been Popular Around The Globe.

[Verse 1] A hundred days have made me older Since the last time that I saw your pretty face A thousand lies have made me colder And I don't think I can look at this the same But all the miles that separate Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face [Chorus] I'm here without you, baby But you're still on my lonely mind I think about you, baby And I dream about you all the time I'm here without you, baby But you're still with me in my dreams And tonight, it's only you and me, yeah [Verse 2] The miles just keep rolling As the people leave their way to say hello I've heard this life is overrated But I hope that it gets better as we go Oh yeah, yeah [Chorus] I'm here without you, baby But you're still on my lonely mind I think about you, baby And I dream about you all the time I'm here without you, baby But you're still with me in my dreams And tonight, girl, it's only you and me, yeah [Bridge] Everything I know, and anywhere I go It gets hard, but it won't take away my love And when the last one falls When it's all said and done It gets hard, but it won't take away my love Whoa, oh, oh [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] I'm here without you, baby But you're still on my lonely mind I think about you, baby And I dream about you all the time I'm here without you, baby But you're still with me in my dreams And tonight, girl, it's only you and me... Yeah Oh, yeah
