I walk the line, leave it all behind I've been waiting forever Let's go back in time when I could read your mind Still I've been waiting It took the seasons going by to know it's not my fault I tried to be perfect Tried to be honest Tried to be everything that you ever wanted I tried to be stronger Tried to be smarter Tried to be everything but you It's been so long since you've been home I used to wait up forever I used to say a prayer, wishing you were there I'm still waiting You told me once you'd show up, but I fell for that before I fell to pieces then I woke up to no one Just a picture of Jesus and a house left in pieces It took the seasons going by to know it's not my fault I tried to be perfect Tried to be honest Tried to be everything that you ever wanted I tried to be stronger Tried to be smarter Tried to be everything but you I want you, I need you, I want to believe you I want you, I need you, I want to believe you I tried to be perfect Tried to be honest Tried to be everything but you I tried to be perfect Tried to be honest Tried to be everything that you ever wanted I tried to be stronger Tried to be smarter Tried to be everything but you I tried to be perfect Tried to be honest Tried to be everything that you ever wanted I tried to be stronger Tried to be smarter Tried to be everything but you
