I’ve been waiting all this time for you.
Can’t you see?
Isn’t it obvious?
That I want you?
And I know you want to be with me.

But our love has to wait,
For something to happen,
So you can’t be late
When I call you through the gate.

I’ve been waiting all this time for you.
Can’t you see?
Isn’t it obvious?
That I want you?
And I know you want to be with me.

I’ll be waiting, waiting, waiting for
You to be where I need you most

I’ve been waiting all this time for you.
Can’t you see?
Isn’t it obvious?
That I want you?
And I know you want to be with me.

Now I finally see what I want
Why couldn’t I see?
Isn’t it obvious?
That you didn’t want me?
And I wanted you.
But I learned that we could never be
So I gave up wasting all this time on you.

It's painstakingly difficult to wait for something that you know will never happen, but you do anyways and you don't know why.
