I've Been Waiting

                                  I've worked hard so I could say nobody owns me

You can spend your whole life trying to forget that you're lonely

Meanwhile the world went by and I paid it no mind

I thought I could close the doors 'cause baby I earned it

I felt I had to prove myself and that meant everything

Then you walked in, and suddenly I realized

I've been waiting such a long time

Waiting here for you, girl





We finally opened up our eyes and looked around us

Like children trying to hide but baby they found us

Now I don't recognize the streets no more

Now I feel guilty just havin' a good time

If we don't share the pain we live with how will it end

Honey, let's try again

Don't you tell me that the dream is over 'cause

I've been waiting such a long time

Waiting here for you, girl





Take your time girl, it won't disappear

Come tomorrow, I'll be right here

Oh, I ain't goin' nowhere because

I've been waiting such a long time

Waiting here for you, girl
