[Verse 1]

I know I've been mistaken

But just give me a break and see the changes that I've made

I've got some imperfections

But how could you collect them all and throw them in my face?

[Chorus]

But you always find a way

To keep me right here waiting

You always find the words to say

To keep me right here waiting

And if you chose to walk away

I'd still be right here waiting

Searching for the things to say

To keep you right here waiting

[Verse 2]

I hope you're not intending

To be so condescending, it's as much as I can take

But you're so independent

You just refuse to bend so I keep bending 'til I break

[Chorus]

But you always find a way

To keep me right here waiting

You always find the words to say

To keep me right here waiting

If you chose to walk away

I'd still be right here waiting

Searching for the things to say

To keep you right here waiting

[Bridge]

I've made a commitment

I'm willing to bleed for you

I needed fulfillment

I found what I need in you

Why can't you just forgive me?

I don't want to relive all the mistakes I've made

Along the way

But I always find a way

To keep you right here waiting

I always find the words to say

To keep you right here waiting

[Chorus]

But you always find a way

To keep me right here waiting

You always find the words to say

To keep me right here waiting

And if I chose to walk away

Would you be right here waiting?

Searching for the things to say

To keep me right here waiting
