I know I’ve been mistaken 
But just give me a break 
And see the changes that I’ve made 
I’ve got some imperfections 
But how can you collect them all 
And throw them in my face 

But you always find a way 
To keep me right here waiting 
You always find the words to say 
To keep me right here waiting 
If you chose to walk away 
I’d still be right here waiting 
Searching for the things to say 
To keep you right here waiting 

I hope you’re not intending 
To be so condescending 
It’s as much as I can take 
And you’re so independent 
You just refuse to bend 
So I keep bending till I break 

But you always find a way 
To keep me right here waiting 
You always find the words to say 
To keep me right here waiting 
If you chose to walk away 
I’d still be right here waiting 
Searching for the things to say 
To keep you right here waiting 

I’ve made [bad word] 
I’m willing to bleed for you 
I needed fulfillment 
I found what I need in you 
Can’t you just forgive me 
I don’t want to relive all the mistakes 
I’ve made along the way 

But I always find a way 
To keep you right here waiting 
I always find the words to say 
To keep you right here waiting 

But you always find a way 
To keep me right here waiting 
We always find the words to say 
To keep me right here waiting 
If I chose to walk away 
Would you be right here waiting 
Searching for the things to say 
To keep me right here waiting
