Hoping

Living in your shadow
living in your past,
wondering everyday
how much longer this will last.

Afraid to leave you alone
scared to let you go,
terrified you won't come back,
once again I'm screaming no!

Hoping you will change
keeping me in mind,
knowing you won't change for me
and hoping you will find.

Find the thing your looking for
and come back to me.
Say I love you baby,
you're the only one I see.
