I've been waiting for what seems forever
to hide this hurt, heal this pain
my endless efforts gave me hope
but it never did feel the same.
it wasn't the first time being there
no, I'd been hurt so many times before
but it seemed like nothing could heal my heart
because i simply couldn't love anymore.
i failed to accept this fate
so i pushed all of this aside
and when it was all said and done
i could at least say that i had tried.
nothing, no one could make this right
with you, i accepted the same fate
but you just wouldn't give up this fight
and told me you would wait.
your patience and determination
amazed me everyday
i told you that you didn't have to
still you insisted that you'd stay.
you were there when i needed you most
and for that, i am so glad
because it would've been a shame
if i lost something i didn't know i had.
you have made my heart feel things
i didn't know that i still could
I'm thinking things, saying things
never again did i think i would.
i simply cannot explain to you
what its like to feel like this
when i was sure love was lost forever
you were there to remind it still exists.
thank you for all that u have done
for you have given me something not everyone can give
and although it doesn't mean so much now
but you've given me a reason to live.
