Patiently Waiting

When you met this girl I was broken and lonely I trusted no man, had no 'one and only' You gave me attention, compassion, and laughter The safety that I was so desperately after The days turned to weeks The weeks into years We held onto eachother Through all of the hardships and tears With my broken trust and shattered dreams I never feared you'd give up on me Through love and compassion all finds repair So I want you to know that I'll always be there If the ship should sail rough And the waves sweep us under I won't let go and watch you drift under We've always won when on the same team And you'll never understand just what your love means In my heart you're my forever, my always, 'the one' Even if we're apart my love won't be undone God gave you to me to light up the way And guard me from rain on the dark stormy days And if my memory is stolen from old age And the days turn to darkness, the photos all fade The one thing that will always stay is my love When my heart stops beating I'll love up from above They always say actions speak louder than words But those people were probably heartbroken girls And my heart no longer breaks it's just patiently waiting Devoting my love and then proudly stating I'm not angry or bitter, I'm completely transparent No need to go on because it's clear and apparent I won't be resentful you won't see me crying Because I was already saved by a love that's undying
