of a thousand wishful [bad word] in my shoes.
 [bad word] circles around my morals.
Anytime, I would be there for you.
Open your eyes, I’m here and waiting for you.

Biting my tongue ‘til the perfect moment.

Biting my tongue ‘til the perfect moment.

Look at me tonight – it’s all I need now.

“Until you’re sure you mean it just wait to say it.”
Don’t you remember that’s advice you gave me?
Stay with me tonight
