I sit here and I wait for you
just hoping you'll stop by.
But time goes on and you don't come,
and I'm trying not to cry.

But what is there between us?
Please tell me what we've got.
Somehow I can't see what it is,
but I know just what it's not.

It's not the things I thought it was,
cause this is just not right.
I feel there should be something else,
but it must be out of sight.

The times I think I need you most,
and I really want your here,
are the times when you're off somewhere else,
someplace that isn't near.

I dream of being in your arms,
It's just something that I need,
I want to think you need me too,
but where do my wants lead?

So I took off and I found someone,
and I thought he'd treat me right.
He looked like he could fix my need.
He looked like he would hold me tight.

I thought about my love for you,
and I knew it would be wrong.
But I needed him cause he was there,
and it wouldn't be for long.

I knew I'd have to tell you though,
and i figured you would leave.
But still I couldn't stop myself,
even though you, I'd sure deceive.

I wasn't trying to be rude to you,
I just needed you and you weren't there.
So I took the closest thing I found,
and found it wasn't fair.

It wasn't like I thought it'd be.
He didn't even want to hold me.
And all I felt for what I did,
was worse than being lonely.

And now if you decide to go,
there's nothing I can say.
But if at all you think you could,
I'd love to have your stay.
