lyrics

Hello lonely, how’ve you been?
I’ve never seen you take the shape of something beautiful
And now I’ll surely fall again,
While every move I make is scripted by the strings you pull

You did what no one dared to try
On my last hope, you somehow brought me back to life.

As I wait for you to walk through that door that I’ve chosen,
I can’t help but think how long that it took to swing open
You’ve opened my eyes, now I’m staring at life unafraid
I’ll say my goodbyes, now that you’re mine just take me away

Turn a new leaf, burn the page
Of chapters in your life that ended short of second rate
I’ll put your green eyes center stage
And fill the pen with lines designed to prove you’re worth the wait.

But if I script the scene just right,
By then you’ll know all the things my words can’t write.

As I wait for you to walk through that door that I’ve chosen,
I can’t help but think how long that it took to swing open
You’ve opened my eyes, now I’m staring at life unafraid
I’ll say my goodbyes, now that you’re mine just take me away

You don’t have a clue just how much I cling to everything you do
In an empty room, I find I have everything when I have you

As I wait for you to walk through that door that I’ve chosen,
I can’t help but think how long that it took to swing open
You’ve opened my eyes, now I’m staring at life unafraid
I’ll say my goodbyes, now that you’re mine just take me away
