Someday you'll come back here |
|
And you'll open up your arms |
|
And you'll laugh and say I knew it wouldn't take you long |
|
To realize I was gone |
|
And it's only been three years (it's only been three years) |
|
But for me it's been so long (so long, so long) |
|
And I remember it like yesterday |
|
Oh, you could say |
|
I've been holding on (holding on) |
|
|
|
And I waited all of my life |
|
For you to make it right |
|
But the time has come and gone |
|
And it's faded and lost all it's light |
|
A star that shined so bright |
|
Falls from the sky |
|
|
|
Don't make a wish that won't come true |
|
And I learned that from you |
|
Such a long time ago (long time ago) |
|
When you left you said you had to find |
|
A better way of life |
|
This one just wouldn't do (just wouldn't do) |
|
|
|
And I waited all of my life |
|
For you to take your time |
|
To find your place |
|
But I learned that this world still turns without you |
|
And you were just a phase and I learned without you |
|
Here I was happier alone |
|
Then I ever would've known |
|
|
|
And so I waited (I waited) |
|
And so I waited (and I waited and I waited) |
|
|
|
And so I waited all of my life (all of my life) |
|
For you to take your time (for you to take your time) |
|
But the time has come and gone (and the time has come and gone) |
|
And it's faded and lost all its light |
|
A star that shined so bright |
|
Falls from the sky |
|
On this cold December night |
