I know I’ve been mistaken.
But just give me a break and see the changes that I’ve made.
I’ve got some imperfections but how can you collect them all
and throw them in my face?

But you always find a way to keep it right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if you chose to walk away I’ll still be right here waiting.
I’m searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting.

I hope you’re not intending,
to be so condescending it’s as much as I can take.
You’re so independent; you just refuse to bend
so I keep bending so I keep bending till I break.

But you always find a way to keep it right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if you chose to walk away I’ll still be right here waiting.
I’m searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting.

I’ve made a commitment; I’m willing to bleed for you.
I needed fulfillment; I found what I need in you.

Why can’t you just forgive me?
I don’t want to relive all the mistakes I’ve made along the way.

But I always find a way, to keep you right here waiting
I always find the words to say to keep you right here waiting

But you always find a way to keep it right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if I chose to walk away would you be right here waiting.
You’re searching for the things to say to keep me right here waiting.
