I try to talk to you
But you're not there
Would you listen anyway?
Do you even care what I feel
It's all a game to you
You play with my feelings
Then leave me hanging

How long do I have to wait
Til the end of time
As long as I need
Just to make you feel the same

I know I can't make you love me
I try to leave
But I can never get both feet out the door
You look at me with that smile
I can't help but melt
When I think of you

How long do I have to wait
Til the end of time
As long as I need
Just to make you feel the same

Now I know that you don't care
You just let me walk away
Please don't let me go
Stop me from going out that door
It's all just a game
I need to win this time

Tell me you need me
Can't live without me
Tell me you feel the same
Was just too scared to show it

How long do I have to wait
Til the end of time
As long as I need
Just to make you feel the same

I can't take this pain anymore
Your silence is so loud
Clearer than your words ever could
Now I know the truth
We could never win
Never be together
I can't believe how I lost
Was such a fool thinking I could win
You meant it all along
That bitter "I don't love you"

How long do I have to wait
Til the end of time
As long as I need
Just to make you feel the same
