Road

I draw a map to go and visit some places in this world

I wrote your name on the window as the rain came pouring 

and I stood there waiting for you, but I’m no longer waiting, no more.

I draw our old little footsteps on that dusty road

and on my way when I went home back, I forgot what I was told.

All I have in the back of mind is your smile, but darling I’m no longer waiting, no more.

So I’m taking that map I made for us, and I’ll live this adventure alone.

I’ll leave you a note in front of your bed, hoping you’ll notice that

you lost the one real thing you’ve ever know.

But darling, I’m not here to make you feel a thing

and I won’t ever be here for another spring.

Cause I’m no longer waiting, no more. 

Oh, no longer waiting, no more.

Remember the night, when I was all yours 

you took my breath away and I thought that you were mine too.

I draw a map to go and visit some places in this world

but somehow, my feet always take me wherever you go.

But I’m taking that map I made for us, and I’ll live this adventure alone.

I left you a note in front of your bed, hoping you’ll read it someday, when you feel alone.

Oh darling, I loved you and I was too afraid to tell

but now that I got my strength in my hand, I want you to know 

that I’m no longer, no longer waiting, no more.
