Patiently waiting, You're betting on me While I'm baiting you carefully for company See the the heart it gets lonely, It needs something sweet Like a night full of laughter that's lacking sleep Cold to the core, I am nothing you need I will dampen that light you so vibrantly beam I am more of a burden than you'd like to believe If you give it some time, you will see what I mean All of your plans, they are all up to chance And you hope and you pray that I make the most sense You're beginning to wonder with these lines in the sand It just might be a lifetime before I let you in Fooled you for a moment there I guess Made you think that I was someone else Made you feel like I was worth the risk You'll hang on to that one for good So you took the chance Now it don't make sense Swift are the days That slip through your hands And take to the wind Because I won't be letting you in It might be a lifetime, a lifetime, yeah You're searching for something you're not gonna find Yeah it might be a lifetime, a lifetime, yeah You're searching for something you're not gonna find
