I walk the line
Leave it all behind
I've been waiting forever
Let's go back in time
When I could read your mind
So I've been waitin'
It took a season's going by
To know it's not my fault
(Chorus)
I tried to be perfect.
Tried to be honest.
Tried to be everything that you ever wanted.
I tried to be stronger.
Tried to be smarter.
Tried to be everything but you...
It's been so long
Since you've been home
I used to wait up forever.
Used to say a prayer
Wishing you were there.
And I'm still waiting...
You told me once
You'd show up,
But I fell for that before
I fell to pieces
Then I woke up to no one
Just a picture of Jesus
And a house left in pieces
And it took a season's going by
To know it's not my fault.
Chorus
I want you
I need you
I want to believe you
I want you
I need you
I want to believe you
I tried be perfect
Tried to be honest
Tried to be everything but you...
Chorus
Chorus
