looking upon the quiet night
the moon is hiding behind the clouds
the stars are not shining bright
and i am standing here in the dark.

i looked into the lifeless water
in the cold, still night
hoping to see my soul within
but there wasnt even a reflection of light.
baby, this heart is crying
its bleeding its contents out
cause all this while i have been waiting
and i am still waiting til my time is up.

nineteen was the time we first met
twenty fifth was the time we went out
so its three months and a week since we met
and three months and a day since we went out.

and all this time i have been living
when it actual fact i was just hoping
that some day this dream will ever be
more than just a mere dream.

but i guess i was wrong
so wrong, baby.
i guess i should have listened,
listen to the ones around me.

i told everyone in the eyes
that i am sure it will happen
and i told myself to give it time
but time has been ticking too fast.

i know the time is near
your time is up
i have been waiting patiently
and now i have to let it go.

but saying is easier than done
seems like my friends are right
and i should have listened
then i'll never need to mend my heart.
