I walk the line
Leave it all behind
I've been waiting forever

Lets go back in time
When I could read your mind
Still I've been waiting


It took the seasons going by
To know its not my fault


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


Its been so long
Since you've been home
I used to wait up forever

I 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



It took the seasons going by

To know its not my fault

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


I wanted you
I need you

I want to believe you
I wanted you
I need you

I want to believe you

I tried to be perfect, tried to be honest

tried to be everything but you

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
