I’ve been waiting so long 
just to write you a song 
so I could finally tell you, 
that with you I belong. 
But so maybe I’m lost 
and just fumbling for words 
but I know that as long as it hurts, 
I’m alive.

Now I’ve been waiting so long 
to try and change what I’ve done. 
But all the tears I hold back 
can’t change the past 
no matter how much that it hurts.

So maybe I’m lost or maybe I just can’t speak. 
But I’ve got 88 keys and one last desperate plea 
to find who I am, and not who I’ve been 
and somehow help make you see.

So give me an answer 
or a chance to remember, 
and tell me that it’s not still too late to try. 
Because lately I’ve been needing 
that feeling that I’m feeling. 
I swear that you had me, 
you never had to try.

Now I’ve been waiting so long 
just to show you this song. 
But all the notes I write down 
can never resound 
with enough force to help set us free.

But so maybe I’m lost or maybe I just can’t speak, 
but I’ve got 88 keys and one last desperate plea 
to find who I am, and not who I’ve been 
and finally make you believe.

So give me an answer 
or a chance to remember, 
and tell me that it’s not still too late to try. 
Because lately I’ve been needing 
that feeling that I’m feeling. 
I swear that you have me, 
you never had to try.

So I’ll write it all down 
and hope that it’s found. 
and sing you the notes that your name [bad word]  
And I’ll be here waiting, 
I’ll be here waiting. 
Yeah I’ll be here waiting by this piano.

Give me an answer 
or a chance to remember, 
and tell me that it’s never too late to try. 
Because lately I’ve been needing 
all these feelings that I’m feeling. 
I swear you’ll always have me; 
you’ll never have to try.
