As we go 'round and 'round this world, I see
One step behind is where we'll always be
And how a girl like you could ever love me
Is still a mystery
Thinking hard about which cards to show
I make my move, but it's way too slow
And I don't know if I'll ever catch you
But I hope you want me to
Oh, and now I'm standing
I've never been so sure
And now I'm waiting
For you to see how much I love you so
Funny how we always talk about
How we wish we could settle down
But the simple truth is that chase is way too fine
I wish that I could find some open fields
Stretch my legs and run
Your broken heart is in the back of your mind
But enough, for unseen is hands of time
I don't know if you'll ever trust me
But this I promise you
Oh, that now I'm standing
I've never been so sure
And now I'm waiting
For you to see how much I love you so
Oh-oh-oh, yeah
And now I'm standing
I've never been so sure
And now I'm waiting
For you to see how much I love you so
Oh-oh-oh, yeah, yeah
