WAITING (Remix)10/21

[Intro – 0:00–0:12]
(Yeah, yeah…)
Midnight rain on my windowpane,
Same old scars, just a different pain.
I keep waiting for a sign,
But you're never on the line.
[Chorus – 0:12–0:36]
I'm still waiting, waiting on a ghost,
Holding on to what I miss the most.
Cold nights, heart froze, I can't let go,
You left me standing on a broken road.
I'm still waiting, waiting in the rain,
Calling out, but you don't feel my pain.
Lights go dark, but the memories stay,
I'm still waiting while you fade away.
[Verse 1 – 0:36–1:04]
Three missed calls, but they ain't from you,
Black clouds hanging in my bedroom.
I gave you my heart, you gave it back bruised,
Told me forever, then you cut me loose.
Now I'm driving past the place we met,
Same old street with a cigarette.
Your goodbye still stuck in my head,
Like a song I wish I could forget.
I put my trust in a heart made of stone,
Built us a future, now I'm building alone.
Got a thousand thoughts I never say,
And a million reasons you walked away.
[Pre-Chorus – 1:04–1:16]
Tell me why the good ones turn to strangers,
Love turned sweet, then it turned dangerous.
I'm looking for a light in an empty sky,
Still asking myself why.
[Chorus – 1:16–1:40]
I'm still waiting, waiting on a ghost,
Holding on to what I miss the most.
Cold nights, heart froze, I can't let go,
You left me standing on a broken road.
I'm still waiting, waiting in the rain,
Calling out, but you don't feel my pain.
Lights go dark, but the memories stay,
I'm still waiting while you fade away.
[Verse 2 – 1:40–2:04]
I watched the clock turn four in the morning,
Heard your voice in the thunderstorm.
Every promise came without a warning,
Now the love we had don't feel warm.
You were my peace, now you're my storm,
Left me out here with a heart that's torn.
I stopped chasing what was never mine,
But your shadow keeps stealing time.
I ain't perfect, but my love was real,
You never cared about the way I'd feel.
Now I'm learning how to walk away,
Even though a part of me wants to stay.
[Outro – 2:04–2:19]
I'm done waiting for a love gone cold,
Done chasing something I can't hold.
If you come back, I'll be miles away,
I waited for you…
But not today.
(Yeah… not today…)
