Oh I've been waiting for a long, long time
And feeling worse than I could feel
Always the wrong place at the wrong time but
This time I know that it's for real
When we talk I don't know what to say
But I think that I will be okay
If I carve your initials in my heart
And though it helps when things get rough
Your picture's not enough
So I will carve your initials in my heart
And find the best way that I can
To make sure you begin to understand
So many thoughts are swimming round my head
I sometimes wish that I would drown
Or maybe think of something else instead
But that would only bring me down
So I'll take a knife and hold it steady
Cause I know that I'm more than ready
To carve your initials in my heart
I'll hold my pillow to my head
Until it's you instead
Then I will carve your initials in my heart
And I don't care how much it hurts
Cause me here without you is even worse
I really love you
And I always will
But you will always be around
And if it takes some time
I'll wait until
Until the stars come crashing down
It gets so lonely when there's no one else
And I've done the best that I can do
And so I'll sit right here beside myself
Until I'm sitting beside you
And I'd give it all up in a minute
If I had a life and you were in it
I'd carve your initials in my heart
I'll hold my pillow to my head
Until it's you instead
Then I will carve your initials in my heart
And dream about the day that you
Carved my initials into your heart too
