Verse 1 Every promise has another promise waiting right behind the first. You say you’re trying, I believe you… that’s the part that hurts. I keep telling all my friends you’re getting there eventually. Funny how “eventually” keeps getting further out of reach. Pre-Chorus You ask me for a little more time. I’ve been giving it away like I have an endless supply. Chorus So I’ll sit here in the waiting room, calling patience something beautiful. Watching seasons change around us, hoping you’ll become the man you said you would. How much longer should I stay before waiting turns into my life? Am I seeing all your progress… or just learning how to settle? Verse 2 You cross a line, you say you’re sorry, we both know the script by now. I tell myself this one’s different… until it isn’t somehow. I’m starting to forget the difference between forgiveness and delay. Maybe I’ve been calling crumbs a feast just to make myself okay. Pre-Chorus You keep saying, “Don’t give up on me.” I’m starting to wonder if I’ve already given up on myself. Chorus So I’ll sit here in the waiting room, counting all the versions of tomorrow. Every “next time” sounds familiar, every “I’ll change” echoes hollow. How much love can one heart give before it disappears instead? I don’t wanna leave you… I just don’t wanna lose me. Bridge Maybe change isn’t supposed to feel like begging. Maybe love isn’t supposed to sound like reminders. I’ve circled every answer, underlined every wound, handed you the map, showed you every open door. If you still don’t know the way… what am I waiting for? Pre-Chorus I wanted forever. I just never imagined forever would feel this long. Final Chorus If loving you means waiting for a day that never comes, then maybe… I’m not waiting anymore. I wanted the life we talked about. I wanted you. But I can’t keep building a future with someone who’s still deciding whether to meet me there. Outro The hardest part was never leaving. It was standing up from the waiting room.
