Ready and Waiting
It's not that I don't love you
I hope you understand
Because of what you're choosing
I cannot be your friend
But oh how I'd love to take your hand
And lead you away from where you stand
But I can't walk beside you
On a road we know is wrong
It breaks my heart to leave you
In a place you don't belong
And God knows I want to stand by you
But until the day you love what's true
I'll be ready and waiting
Here for you
As soon as you find
Nothing satisfies your thirsty eyes
Then you'll see
What I had to leave
I know you think you're alright
But you cannot deny
Your life was so much brighter
When you lived it in the light
I know what it's like to live a lie
To feel like you're broken deep inside
I know how it hurts to cross the line
So until you're left that world behind
I'll be ready and waiting
Here for you
As soon as you find
Nothing satisfies
Your thirsty eyes
Then you'll see
Oh I hope you see soon
I know what it's like to live a lie
To feel like you're broken deep inside
I know how it hurts to cross the line
So until you're left that world behind
I'll be ready and waiting
Here for you
As soon as you find
Jesus satisfies
Your thirsty eyes
Then you'll see
What I had to leave
I'll be ready and waiting
Here for you
As soon as you find
Jesus satisfies
Your thirsty eyes
Then you'll see
What I had to leave
I hope you understand
Because of what you're choosing
I cannot be your friend
But oh how I'd love to take your hand
And lead you away from where you stand
But I can't walk beside you
On a road we know is wrong
It breaks my heart to leave you
In a place you don't belong
And God knows I want to stand by you
But until the day you love what's true
I'll be ready and waiting
Here for you
As soon as you find
Nothing satisfies your thirsty eyes
Then you'll see
What I had to leave
I know you think you're alright
But you cannot deny
Your life was so much brighter
When you lived it in the light
I know what it's like to live a lie
To feel like you're broken deep inside
I know how it hurts to cross the line
So until you're left that world behind
I'll be ready and waiting
Here for you
As soon as you find
Nothing satisfies
Your thirsty eyes
Then you'll see
Oh I hope you see soon
I know what it's like to live a lie
To feel like you're broken deep inside
I know how it hurts to cross the line
So until you're left that world behind
I'll be ready and waiting
Here for you
As soon as you find
Jesus satisfies
Your thirsty eyes
Then you'll see
What I had to leave
I'll be ready and waiting
Here for you
As soon as you find
Jesus satisfies
Your thirsty eyes
Then you'll see
What I had to leave
