Until My Kingdom Comes

you said
' I'll be waiting right here to be ready, one day we'll get over '
but I've been waiting so long I'm already gone, out of control.
I stood it for a second, but a second's enough.
I counted every minute, every day, every month
and soon another year has gone by
without you to see me mess it up.

why don't you tell me what you thought of
and I could try to make your mind up?
i'll try to make it your decision, that your decision is me.
or you could tell me that you want to,
that I could take up all your time too.
when will I shake it off
and know you love me
like I love you?

I went a long time without feeling love
I should never try to deny it.
instead I spent all of my energy trying to remember your face.
but everytime I'd look into the mirror I'd see
the ghost of you, somewhere in there, looking at me
but I could never run away or make any sense
of what I had to be.

why don't you tell me what you thought of
and I could try to make your mind up?
i'll try to make it your decision, that your decision is me.
or you could tell me that you want to,
that I could take up all your time too.
when will I shake it off
and know you love me
like I love you?
