I’ve been looking in all the wrong places,
Holding my nose in the air.
Somebody steady my roaming attention
And narrow the lights I compare.
I’ve been counting the swift and the shallow,
Turning my back in a day.
One then the next and they add up to nothing.
I bet with a hand overplayed.
I’m not going home.
Can I go back to what I tasted?
Did I light my fire too soon?
One day I’ll build that house on a hillside
When I find a way to lay all the doubts I carry aside.
Coming face to face through an empty embrace
With time and the distance I impose.
Always running in place with that terrible pressure
To compete and always keep my composure.
Am I wasting my time waiting for
That girl so perfectly adorned?
Am I wasting my time so unsure
Of what I’m even looking for?
I have no more questions,
It all comes together now
When your counterpart makes you whole.
Am I wasting my time
with my heart held at bay?
Am I wasting my time so damn far
Away from those who showed me love?
