Lyrics

I sat on the grass
Waiting for your car to arrive
Waiting for my life to move on
Waiting for you

I sat on the grass
Waiting for your car to arrive
Waiting for my life to begin
Waiting for you

I didn't think it through
I dropped everything I knew
Waiting for you
Waiting for you

From the corner of my eye
You almost passed me by
Blasting music through the air
You were old enough to care

I sat in the sand
Waiting for the perfect man
Waiting til I'm red not tan
Waiting for you

I sat in the sand
Getting buried and broken
My words are unspoken
Waiting for you

Strumming your guitar
Your hands dripping with tar
My sandcastle was crushed
It didn't worry you as much

Strolling on the beach
You were just out of reach
A dusty tornado
Putting on a show

I was your star
Shining through the window on a cloudy day
I was your star
Revealing every secret that you hid away

You went too far
Don't you remember who we are?
I tried my best to stay
But my light faded away

I'm staring down the street
Waiting for the perfect beat
Waiting 'til my voice gets weak
Waiting for you

I'm staring down the street
Hoping you don't lose your way
Wondering if you'll find me today
Waiting for you

Now you appear before my eyes
Spoiling their surprise
Wearing a party hat
Carrying a baseball bat

You showered me with doubt
As you blew my candles out
My only wish is gone
My friends all left at dawn

I sat in your car
Waiting for the engine to start
Waiting for it to fall apart
Waiting for you

I sat in your car
Waiting for the perfect rhyme
While the signal clicked in time
Waiting for you

When you put your foot on the gas
All I saw was broken glass
You were going the wrong way
And didn't know the light had changed

While I'm locked inside
My eyes are open wide
As the flames grow higher
You roast marshmallows by the fire

I was your star
Shining through the window on a cloudy day
I was your star
Revealing every secret that you hid away

You went too far
Don't you remember who we are?
I tried my best to stay
But my light faded away

I was your star
Shining through the window on a cloudy day
I was your star
Revealing every secret that you hid away

You went too far
Don't you remember who we are?
I tried my best to stay
But my light faded away
