I've been waiting eighteen years for you
Poisonous lover like a serpent in my dreams at night
Tell me all the plans you have made
All the broken paths that you paved
Tell me why I bleed myself to the core every night
While I let myself watch you walk away
I never wanna be repetitive
But I don't think you can read between the lines of my cries
It turns to ice when my tears fallin' down
Got my bag all on my own, do you get the memo now?
'Cuz I'm an independent woman with a conflict
I can hear them talking 'bout me but I got no problem with it
'Cuz my heart's on the line all the time, baby, can u see me
All these people talkin' but I know they gonna hear me
Sing like the angels in the sky
When I'm ahead of you, don't be askin' why
I never left you in the dust for nothing but the memories
I just wanna run away and find my own serenity
But I got a passion for it, baby
I wouldn't wanna trade this all for you
I got a long list of things that I would do
If only I could sing like the angels
Sing like the angels
And when you get home tonight
You better make sure that you cry
'Cuz I don't wanna see you hurting
I know you didn't hurt me
But I got a passion for you, baby
You know that I would trade it all for you
I got a long list of things that I would do
If only I could sing like the angels
Sing like the angels
So do you think that I'm an angel now
I got the devil in me, baby
You can't save me now, this is how I cope
So call me in the morning when the sun is rising
Wishin' u were at my doorstep
But I got this feeling in me that is hard to hold back
It keeps pushin' me, killin' me, finna fall back
Back into the back of your head where I belong again
We were movin' so good, tell me what is happenin'
But I know that life moves on
I'll tell you in a song tonight when you go to bed
Hoping you still need me
I got a passion for it, baby
I wouldn't wanna trade this all for you
I got a long list of things that I would do
If only I could sing like the angels
Sing like the angels
And when you get home tonight
You better make sure that you cry
'Cuz I don't wanna see you hurting
I know you didn't hurt me, but-
I've been waiting eighteen years for you
Poisonous lover like a serpent in my dreams at night
