Anyone you ask will tell you that she's over me
And that i've been waitin’ around for too long
Everything i want is standin’ right in front of me
But crucial times are great for me getting it wrong

Every time i see you i fight for words
What’s it like to be you? i've only heard
I can't stand here waitin’--thinkin’ ‘bout your smile
All the lights are fadin’ on the miracle mile
I can't stand the colors that remind me of the past
How could i be so stupid to think this would last?
I can’t stand here waitin.’

Everybody's wondering what the hell's come over me
Everybody's over-thinking way too much
Getting knocked around like this they say it’s good for me
People at the door say “look but you can't touch.”

Every time i see you i fight for words
What’s it like to be you? i've only heard
I can't stand here waitin’--thinkin’ ‘bout your smile
All the lights are fadin’ on the miracle mile
I can’t stand the colors that remind me of the past
How could i be so stupid to think this would last?
I can't stand here waitin.’
