The Girl Who Waited

All this time I’ve waited Not knowing who it’d be A thousand years I stood in stone “A fool” they’d all called me But, I feel you in my heart I feel you in my soul I just don't know who you are yet Though worth the price I pay, This time, it takes its toll. In truthfulness, I’ve had my doubts. I’ve cried so many tears. “Will they come?” id ask myself Afraid to speak my fears Then reaches down the hands of the gods And wipe my tears away “Listen now, my child” they whisper “You can make another day” So again I stood, Do as they say They would not lead me wrong Although im tired, And my heart is sore.. Ill wait, til she comes along.
