I waited for you Lyrics

Told you on New Year's Day

You said "I need some time"

Held your hand in Paris

My panic started to rise

A couple months later

I threw my bet, you raised

That offer's off the table

but my feelings won't go away

Now it's been the better part of a year

And I can't think about you without bringing me to tears

I waited for you

Way back in January now it's June

Didn't have a clue

That you asked for space and found somebody new

Call me naive, call me dramatic

But this spark, I felt we had it

And I tried to let it grow

Just for you to go and put it out

Call me cruel but I'll take what I can get

Your pretty smile and a chance to hold your hand

There was never a right place nor a right time

Every fragment of you is captured in my mind

In my mind

I try to savor all the seconds in your arms

Praying that I'm not setting off any love alarms

I waited for you

Way back in January now it's June

Didn't have a clue

That you asked for space and found somebody new

Call me naive, call me dramatic

But this spark, I felt we had it

And I tried to let it grow

Just for you to go and put it out

Every look in each others' eyes

diary entries that we read

Every late-night conversation sitting on your bed

Can't hold my butterflies

Forget the words I said

'Cause now I see you're kissing him instead

I waited for you

Way back in January now it's June

Didn't have a clue

That you asked for space and found somebody new

Call me naive, call me dramatic

But this spark, I felt we had it

And I tried to let it grow

Just for you to go
