It's not the first time I've been wrong
But it's never been this painful for so long
I was slow to figure out what I wanted
Didn't know I had it then
Hindsight it all came down to the moment when
I ran
Afraid
Convinced
You'd wait
For the walls around my heart to crumble
And let you in
I took
You gave
I pushed you away
For those who don't believe the tables turn
They do
'Cause you're the one running
Boy I'm here
Waiting on you
Would you believe me if I told you I have changed
And that now I see your arms as my escape
Let me trade your ticket on a roller coaster
For a ride on a carousel
Give you back the pennies that I stole from your wishing well
I ran
Afraid
Convinced
You'd wait
For the walls around my heart to crumble
And let you in
I took
You gave
I pushed you away
For those who don't believe the tables turn
They do
'Cause you're the one running
Boy I'm here
Waiting on you
Waiting on you
You run
It's okay
I swear
I'll wait
For the walls around your heart to crumble
And let me in
I'll give
You take
I won't be afraid
For those who don't believe the tables turn
They do
When you stop running
When you stop running
I'll be here
Waiting on you
Waiting on you
Waiting on you
Waiting on
Waiting on
Boy I'm waiting on
Waiting on you
