The Waiting

Here you come along
 I take a breath and remind myself that I too can be strong
 Thought I was cool
 Turns out I'm a fool
 Clearly you've proved me wrong
 I didn't know what I was missing when I was alone
 And now I'm fruitlessly waiting for someone not thinking
 Before they start rushing to my door
 Someone to run not walk
 Someone to sing not talk
 Oh, no hesitation at all
 Sometimes I need you to be the one to call
 Well, I'm lost in my thoughts
 They tumbled ahead
 Over and over again
 Yeah, it's true
 Just take a look at what's been done to me
 I wasted time to ponder
 Here I am, oh, Alice in wonder
 Partly I do this to myself
 But why can't you see
 The gesture is small
 But know that it means the world to me
 Forgive me for wanting
 I'm only learning life
 Forgiven myself and now there's no returning
 I want to be the one who knows the best way
 To love you
 But now I'm foolishly waiting for
 Someone not thinking before they start rushing to my door
 Someone to run not walk
 Someone to sing not talk
 Oh, no hesitation at all
 Sometimes I need you to be the one to call
 I need you to be the one
