Where's the sun when you want it?
Never been a fan of clouds
You said you'd decide
When the time was right
So I stayed and I waited
I'm afraid to let this one go
Can't see the stars the way I used to
Big city lights surrounding me
I got a whole lot of pride, yeah
But I've been known to lie
So I stayed and I waited
I'm afraid to let this one go
Whoaaaaaaaohhhh
The lessons learned
So many ways, so many ways
This world can turn
The sky's the limit
I've got nothing to hide
No matter which way the wind is blowing
You can't stop this fire burning inside, no
Kinda cool around here this evening
Kinda like the look you're giving me
But then again you smile, yeah, yeah
Just like a child, baby
I stayed and I waited, huh
I'm afraid, but I waited
I stayed and I waited
Oh Lord, and I prayed, and I waited
I stayed and I waited
I'm afraid to let this one go
