Waiting

--------------

They all think that we're lovers

Something to hide under the covers

But I know better than that

'Cuz to you, I'm nothing to look at.

What will it take for you to see

How much you mean to me?

What will it take for you to believe

Your side I will never leave?

She broke you so long ago

Let me fix you because I know

If you'd just let me try my best

I can be more than you ever guessed.

She tore a hole through your heart

And ripped your soul apart

But I'm exactly what you need

I can make all the pain recede.

One day your senses will unfurl

And you'll see I'm no longer a little girl

Nor am I the sister you thought me to be

Or the best friend, this I guarantee.

I can wait for your eyes to open

And for you to know right then

That I'm the best thing to happen to you

The only thing left that's true.

'Cuz everyone else is the liar

Deceiving you with words of desire

While I sit here patiently

Waiting for you to come to me.
