Waiting For Love

Waiting for Love

Standing in my backyard
There's an old oak tree
Our names are still engraved in it 
Wish you were here with me
I remember when we fell in love 
And all the fun we had
The summer that we spent alone
When we both had it bad
I wonder if you wonder 'bout me
I wonder where you are
I wonder if you found your dreams
I believe you are a star
Hopes and dreams are all we have 
I hope they all come true 
I hope we all find happiness
Before our lives are through
Back when we were standing
Beneath that old oak tree
I told you I would love you
For all of eternity
But you said sorry honey
We have grown so far apart
There’ll always be a special place
For you inside my heart
I wonder if you wonder 'bout me
I wonder where you are
I wonder if you found your dreams
I believe you are a star
Hopes and dreams are all we have 
I hope they all come true 
I hope we all find happiness
Before our lives are through
