waiting to be united
you’re looking for me
i can see you’re stressed out
looking nervous on your first date
because he ain’t turn out you pictured
you pass the time wishing and dreaming about walking out
and running into a stranger that you can’t spend the rest of your life without
we’re on a collision course
don’t look so lost and discouraged
just because you don’t know you’ve been found don’t make you lost
you go to Cancun with all your single friends
don’t know if its a distraction to ignore the pain
or a signal that you’re looking for some pleasure to numb the pain
ive found you in the haze
that gaze on your face
it seeks me out
your gorgeous grace is so mesmerizing
build me these glass steps to our meeting place
it feels like we’re seas apart
there’s no getting used to it
we’re too used to getting used to it
our hearts demand that we meet
twin flames even if that means we burn everything around us
or everything tries to burn us
i must have you
my greatest fire
you live in a quiet city
going to uni wearing your best clothes
your girls love to post brunch and cute dates
where they sit and tell you
about the barista they find cute
you sit there quietly
entranced by the Monet hung on the wall
questioning life without love
other nights you love to party
you get loud singing your favorite tunes
and peeling your feet off the dance floor
it all feels so empty without you
there’s no life at this party without you
how many failed dates to get to you
its been so long since i’ve felt others’ warmth
i keep drinking to feel you right next to me
i can’t stand this much longer, I need someone to lean on
maybe you’re out there with someone else, right now
and maybe it’s not my time with you, right now
hope you’re making all the mistakes
as many as it takes
to realize that she’s not the one ready for love
it’s only a matter of time before the leaves fall
and we fall in them
forgive me, babe
i just got a little sad looking at my handed-down locket
empty like my diary
with all these saved pages
waiting for us to be united like a pair of doves in adjacent cages
when you find me come with a rose
with your blood all over the thorns
we’ll have matching scars
for this love we’ve given everything for
we’re worlds apart in a small world
oh, what do we do? oh, babe
in pictures, I stand out
looking sad next to all my happy friends
because I won’t be happy till I stand next to you
stop the games, stop the masquerade
Your impression has bewitched me
And I have fallen in love
wherever you are my love, whoever you are my lover
i’m waiting to be united
