Quite the distance between us

I dont wanna sleep
Rejecting the idea of sleep, possibly due to the intrusive thoughts that trouble the speaker's mind.
The thoughts inside my head you know they get the best of me

And I’m over looking at these stars without you babe

Cause days are longer when you're not around

Time has stopped and I'm just gettin older

Nights are falling I keep going and going I feel nothing the something I want is you

I’ll see you in mid July

But I don't wanna wait I’m tired sitting patiently
Feeling weary of waiting patiently and desiring a quicker reunion with the significant other.
Driving through Ohio’s greens
Reflecting on a journey through Ohio, possibly indicating a physical distance and separation from the significant other.
Are moments I can’t lose these memories without you will fade

And I’m over looking at these stars without you

And I’m over living all this life without you
