MESSAGE ON THE MACHINE Lyrics

I been thinking all the things that I want to say to you

But every time I try and pick I don't know what to choose

So now we're in this waiting game

And every time I try and speak

It all comes out

The same

I can't help myself when you're around

And I never felt more alive with you by my side

I don't want to give it all up

Trying to see what's in front of us

Remember when mom freaked out?

Your hair was dyed

She cried

I guess good things come to those who wait

But I've got a hard time keeping my thoughts straight

I'm sick of making the same mistakes

And whipping up more heartache

So I guess, good things come to those

good things come to those who wait

I guess, good things come to those

good things come to those who wait

I don't wanna wait any longer

Waitin' for the other shoe to drop

And I can't believe I said that to you

And I can't believe you did that to me

Now I wait and wait alone

I was so in love with you by my side

But I'm finding I don't need you in my life

I'm gonna stand on my own

I don't need blood from a stone

No you can't say I didn't try

I said I'd wait?

I lied.

I guess good things come to those who wait

But I'm on a fast track to breaking this waiting game

I'm sick of making the same mistakes

and whipping up more heartache

So I know, good things come to those

But we're out on our own

That's the way we like it and no one can tell us no

We're out on our own

We're out on our own

That's the way we like it and

No one can tell us no
