I wasted a year one time
Just to see if I could
I waited right here on the line
Of what's bad and what's good
I whispered your name to the wind
It just slipped away
I wasted a year of my life
To know if I should
Now I know you're not coming
You still seem too far away
I wasted a year to find out
If things somehow would change
I wrote it all down in my notes
How I'm willing to take the blame
I'm sorry for thinking that we
Could be something more
I'm sorrier for myself
I don't know why I stayed
Now I know you're not coming
You still seem too far away
The truth in the moment
Fades
And I remember who I'm doing this for
I remember why I couldn't give up before
No matter how long, you're worth the wait
I remember what the barriers are
I remember when I'm lost you're my light in the dark
You're the reason no matter how long I would stay
You were still worth the wait
I've got to get it out of my head
That time has passed
Regardless of what you had said
About how this will last
Feeling unwanted is useless
It just makes me sad
To get rid of this helplessness
I still pretend
That I know you're still coming
Right now you're just too far away
The truth in the moment
Yeah it fades
And I remember who I'm doing this for
I remember why I couldn't give up before
No matter how long, you're worth the wait
I remember what the barriers are
I remember when I'm lost you're my light in the dark
You're the reason no matter hoe long I would stay
You were still worth the wait
Still worth the wait
Still worth the wait
Still worth the wait
