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 me right here waiting

You always find the words to say

To keep me right here waiting

If you chose to walk away

I'd still be right here waiting

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

And you're so independent

You just refuse to bend

So I keep bending till I break



But you always find a way

To keep me right here waiting

You always find the words to say

To keep me right here waiting

If you chose to walk away

I'd still be right here waiting

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 me right here waiting

You always find the words to say

To keep me right here waiting

If I chose to walk away

Would you be right here waiting

Searching for the things to say

To keep me right here waiting
