And though I'm still standing here
Right by your side
Waiting for a reason to grasp your hand
Or to slowly walk away
Pretending that you never meant a thing.
You've got me so caught up
And there's a million more
But it's always the thought of you
Holding their hand never feels right
Now that I've felt yours
Kissing their lips will never do
Now that I've kissed you
Your perfection constantly haunts me
Just the thought of you makes me melt
And though I thought I was stronger
Than what I've realised
You caught me so off guard
I thought I could be the one to show you
That you're not worth waiting around for
But here I am just like every girl before
Forgiving you for every lie,
That constantly leave your lips
Holding on for a better day
Knowing that it will never change
Apologizing for telling you your imperfections,
For standing up for what I feel
Just so I don't loose whatever it is we have
Why am I here, standing where
I've seen so many stand
Promising I'd never be like them
But I'm just the same,
A love - struck girl falling for your every flaw
And grasping tight to the words
You whispered long ago
