I'M Waiting

I'm waiting
waiting for it to finally hit me
waiting for it to finally sink in
waiting for the right time to just give up and give in

I'm waiting
waiting for the time to let go
waiting for the time I have to say goodbye
waiting for my tears to surcome and let myself cry

I'm waiting
waiting to let my heart know the truth
waiting here for however long it takes
waiting to be ready when my heart breaks

All this time I've been waiting
waiting for myself to wake up
waiting for myself to catch reality
when the whole time I really just want you back with this family

I miss you more than words can say
I hate that everything ended this way
That's why I've been waiting
waiting for you to come back
waiting for you to make us laugh
waiting this whole time to some how let go 
waiting for the time to let you know

I'm waiting
waiting to walk down that isle
waiting to look beside me
waiting to hurt at the fact that you can't help me
