WAITING
Many women show interest wanting to be the lady on my arm
But they don't know my heart is taken; I know they mean no harm
In my dreams, a thousand times, I have tasted your sweet lips
Wrapped you in my arms & ran my fingers down your hips
Walked down the road in the pouring rain though it's not happened yet
Holding hands under an umbrella~ don't worry I won't let you get wet
I see me underneath the moonlight, gazing into your eyes
Finding truth in your pupils when in all the others I just found lies
Us cuddled up by the fireplace while a movie is playing
I can see it so vividly, I wish you would stop delaying!
Lying on our backs while overhead the planes are landing
Please hurry up, I just want you here~ sorry to be demanding
Every time I see a couple, thoughts of you flood my mind
Hoping your trip doesn't take much longer & I run out of time
Writing I love you in a steamed-up mirror so you can see it when you get out
An once-in-a-lifetime kind of love~ one we've both dreamed about
I know you're riding first-class on the In His Time Express
Just as long as you get here soon, the exact time matters less
A rose here, a letter there & now you're wondering what's next
Opening every single door & starting your morning off with a text
I've got it all pictured, the only thing I'm missing is you
I know you're on your way, but I'm so tired of waiting yet it's the only thing I can do.
