Waiting

I’m wide

Awake

It’s hard

To shake

The feeling I’m not being something you needed.

Just taking up space in the heart feeling cheated.

 

I’m tired

Still

Wired

Thrilled

Cause tomorrow will be the ultimate test

If you’re holding on I will hold to the death.

 

It’s so close to being a little too far

The distance between us is breaking my heart

I’m in love with your love, but is it always enough?

To feel like I’m waiting for what just won’t come.

The Girl Made By The Scientist

I once met a girl

Who was made by a scientist

He kept her in a cage but one day

She found her way out of it

I said hello, and I told her my name

She had no place to go, I said why don’t you come with me?

 

The scientist never missed her,

Only wondered where she went.

She is special, she is someone,

And to him she’s just an experiment.

 

I’m living with this girl

Who was made by a scientist

But I heard they keep them in cages

My boyfriend said, how did she get out of it?

I know this girl

Who was made by a scientist

She met a boy

Who loved her with everything

 

The scientist never missed her,

Only wondered where she went.

She is special, she is someone,

And to him she was just an experiment.

 

I met a little girl today,

Maybe only four or five years old,

She looked at me and couldn’t wait to say hello

My mommy was a girl

Who was made by a scientist

He kept her in a cage

Until she one day found her way out of it

I’m so happy she did because

People shouldn’t live in cages

Little girls shouldn’t live in cages

Without love.

 

The scientist never missed her,

Only wondered where she went.

She is special, she is someone,

And to him she’s just an experiment.

The scientist never missed her,

Only wondered where she went.

She is special, she is someone,

And to him she’s just an experiment.

 

I once met a girl

Who was made by a scientist

I was touched by her life,

More like grabbed by the wrist.

The girl made by the scientist is love,

Not an experiment.

A friend, a lover, even an enemy a mother,

All the science in the world couldn’t make you that.

Eternity

I’ve waited forever

To find a love like this

I was so happy

And thought you were happy too

Excuse me for not paying attention

 

One day you’ll wake up

And you won’t see my face

Won’t say my name in your sleep

One day you’ll forget

That you ever promised me

Eternity

 

I know you think I’m fine

Everybody does

But it’s not hard to wear a smile

It’s not hard to fake it through the days

You proved that

Oh you proved that

 

One day you’ll wake up

And you won’t see my face

Won’t say my name in your sleep

One day you’ll forget

That you ever promised me

Eternity

 

One day I’ll wake up

And I won’t see your face

Won’t say your name in my sleep

One day I’ll forget

That you ever promised me

Why did you ever promise me

Why would you ever promise

Eternity

Loving You Right

He said I don’t know what to do about you

I just can’t make it work

I said, then don’t do anything

It kills, but it’s a good

Kinda hurt.

 

He put his hands on my back,

I thought he was gonna cry.

I’m sorry that I’m such a problem

All I do is sigh

 

And it got hard, but loving’s easy

When you’ve got somebody, loving you right

And it get’s hard, but the loving’s easy

When you’ve somebody, loving you right

 

I said I think maybe you should go now

We just can’t make it work

He said, he put in this much time

A little more couldn’t hurt.

 

He put his hands on my hands,

I started to cry,

I’m sorry I give you all these problems,

I really don’t know how or why

 

And it got hard, but loving’s easy

When you’ve got somebody, loving you right

And it get’s hard, but the loving’s easy

When you’ve got somebody, loving you right

 

And it’s everything else that keeps us awake

And everything else keeping you off my mind

I’m sorry I’ve got all these problems

I’m sorry I still want you mine

And it’s everything else that keeps us awake

And everything else that makes us fight

I’m sorry we’ve got all these problems

I’m sorry, I’m sorry all I can do is sigh

 

And it got hard, but loving’s easy

When you’ve got somebody, loving you right

And it get’s hard, but the loving’s easy

When you’ve got somebody, loving you right

I’m got somebody loving me right,

I’ve got somebody loving me right.

I wanna keep getting on,

Loving you right.

I wanna keep getting on,

Loving you right.

I’ve got somebody loving me right.

Loving’s easy.
