The way you thought I would
I couldn't wait forever
I found new love and happiness
As I prayed for time to fly
I couldn't wait forever
Just got too much for me
You took my love for granted
The agony of loneliness
Needing love so desperately
I couldn't wait forever
New arms to hold me tight
Now my heart has found a new home
As long as I could
Find somebody new
I couldn't wait forever
I lived on hopes that you'd return
The lonely nights grew longer
To fill these empty nights
So I found new lips to kiss me
I lived on dreams and promises
I guess you thought I'd never
And that's how I got by
Forever's just too long
