I guess I've painted quite a gloomy picture   Drought and famine locusts and the rest   I said that we could never be together   But never even once did you protest      I guess I've always seen the glass half empty   And try to keep my expectations low   I'm trying hard not to be disappointed   You know how long these love affairs can go      But though I sit and watch you leave   I will fall to pieces when you go      And I'm waiting for you   Waiting for you   Waiting for you   Waiting for you to prove me wrong      All the air has left the rooms we live in   And never have you felt so far away   Never has the sunlight felt like darkness   And never have we had less to say      But all my silent soldiering   It will fall to pieces when you go      And I'm waiting for you   Waiting for you   Waiting for you   Waiting for you to prove me wrong      I am waiting for you   Prove me wrong      I am waiting for you   Prove me wrong      I am waiting for you   Prove me wrong      ...but please don't let me down.
