I stood there

And waited for you

To catch up to me

As we ran the streets.

And I stood there

And waited for you

To stand back up

When you fell.

So it made perfect sense

To stand waiting for you

To finally see me

In a brand new light

Instead of a friend,

Just one of the guys.

Then I stood

And I waited some more,

Waited for you

To finally open the door

So that I could step in,

Take the spot

That was rightfully mine,

Holding your heart,

You holding mine.

So I stood and I waited

Each and every night

For my life

To hold true to your words.

But now I realize

That that was my life-

Waiting for you

To make up your mind.

Well, now I can't wait.

I've got my own life

And I can't wait for you

To choose yours.

So no more waiting

For that little boy

To become the man

We were all waiting for.
