Waiting on you
Trying to keep your head strong
With nothing to lose
You raise your voice with something to prove
And all the things you say to me
I can’t forget them
You don’t leave
But you tell me with your eyes what you need
Oh, please
Do you think that I don’t know what it means
All the things you hide from me
I accept them
But I need you next to me
If I can’t hold you now
Keep thinking that you might not come around
I have no words
I have no words to say
If I can’t change your mind
Keep thinking is this our last goodbye
You say it first
You say it first to me
You’re in the clear
While I’m waking up to nothing but tears
And you stay the same
Like I’m the only one that needed to change
You know the things you said to me
Do you regret them?
I just need you next to me
If I can’t hold you now
Keep thinking that you might not come around
I have no words
I have no words to say
If I can’t change your mind
Keep thinking is this our last goodbye
You say it first to me
You say it first
So I
Can't just forget you
Just forget you
Can't just forget you
Just forget you
And if I can’t hold you now
Keep thinking how you might not come around
I have no words
I have no words to say
If I can’t change your mind
Keep thinking is this our last goodbye?
You say it first
You say it first to me
And if I can’t hold you now
Keep thinking how you might not come around
I have no words
I have no words to say
If I can’t change your mind
Keep thinking is this our last goodbye?
You say it first
You say it first to me
