It's been five years of waiting for you to show me a sign
I've been doing my best to show
You what is really on my mind
Well I know you see right through
Me but sometimes you look right past
I am standing here waiting all I need is just one chance

I don't know what it takes to get you
To love me but I'm doing everything I can
I'd give you the match if it helps you start the fire
And if it's flying a plane across
The ocean just to be right by your side
You can count on the fact that
I'll be there by this time tomorrow night

Friday nights you go downtown, fall in love with someone new
I fake a smile and say I like her cause what else can I do?
When I find ya sad and lonely and you're hanging round my door
Well I know that she ain't me so tell me what you're looking for
Packed your bags, got a ticket, headed one way out of town
You say there's nothing here for you, not even love to be found
And I know, you see right through me, won't you look me in the eye
You'll see love right here before you she's not ready to say goodbye
