As time goes by I stand here waiting
watching all the people walk past
smiles on their faces and love in their hearts
a skip in their step, a sparkle in their eyes.
It surrounds me like his loving arms should,
the way I wish he would look at me
and yet I know it can never be, you and me,
we may be a pair of true loves lost.
Yet I can never be certain of how you feel
all I know is it cannot be decided by you or I
we shall just have to let fate take its course
if it was meant to be then it shall in good time.
But for now all this will be is the story of a lonely girl
one who wishes and hopes all her life, never gives up
deals with all the hurt and pain, love and lust
never no- one to trust, until she met her soul mate.
No matter if I walk around or stand in one place,
its always the same feeling that creeps up on me,
that feeling of never knowing if it was meant to be
were you the other half that completes me.
All I have to comfort me is the bitter darkness that surrounds me
as I sit here completely on my own in this tranquil place
I remember the time I met you, just for a few seconds
the way we connected, you understood me like no-one else can.
Yet now all I can think about is the future, what is out there
am I destined to be this way forever, nobody to love, no-one to care
thats why all I can do is pretend its alright, everythings fine
hope no-one notices the way I trully feel about this barren land.
But for now all this will be is the story of a lonely girl
one who wishes and hopes all her life, never gives up
deals with all the hurt and pain, love and lust
never no- one to trust, until she met her soul mate.
As I look down to the floor I see my reflection in a dirty puddle
and wonder why I feel this way, why is nobody able to see
just how unbearable it is for me to live this lonely life
while I can see you carrying on like I’m not even there.
