There's been an awful lot of talk these days
About the damage that's been done and all the things that I say.
I stand tall and accept the blame,
If it'll make it any easier to walk away (from us).
I never tried to bring out any pain but the situation doesn't seem to lead to gain,
So how do I compromise when I see the degradation that's inside your eyes?

But you don't even know my name.

I've waited all my life, to find a way to stop you as you're walking by,
But you never saw the signs, shouting out for you to not leave me behind.

I never shied away from the light,
I've never been the kind of person to avoid a fight,
So why won't you realize there's a reason I'm continuing to fantasize (about us)?
I think about you every day,
It's the only thing that seems to melt the pain away,
So why can't you realize there's a feeling that I feel when I look in your eyes?

But you don't even know my name.

I've waited all my life, to find a way to stop you as you're walking by,
But you never saw the signs, shouting out for you to not leave me behind.

I need to know your name.
I think that we're one in the same.

I've waited all my life, but you never saw the signs.

I've waited all my life, to find a way to stop you as you're walking by,
But you never saw the signs, shouting out for you to not leave me behind.

(Waited All My Life) I've waited all my life,
(Waited All My Life) To find a way to stop you as you're walking by,
(Waited All My Life) But you never saw the signs,
Shouting out for you to not leave me behind.
