I'll Wait For You



My heart is broken
Filled with darkness and despair
Crumbling to dust
Because you wont say you care

It's the safety of your arms
And the tenderness of your touch
My personal heavenly bliss
That maybe i wanted to much

I've loved you for years
Since we first met
The secret hiding deep in my soul
A secret that can no longer be kept

I'm trying to move on
But it doesn't feel right
I keep going back
To your lips and their delight

So just tell me once
And I'll suffer through
Say you want me
And I'll wait for you
