If i had God's mind
I would choose you because i know i would handle you
But am just human
My mind fails me sometimes and my heart keeps silent
My mind cant conceive and my heart cant discern
And sometimes my eyes work full time while my heart just stays in bed all day
Babe all i can do is wait
Wait on him that sees with divinity
He who sees and defines the future
I can't help but wait

There is a fire that burns in my heart
What i do not know is will it keep me warm through the dark cold nights
Or will it burn my heart to ashes? I wonder!
Your arms around me feel so safe........
But honey....ooh i cant lie i do not know
I do not know what lies behind that hold
It maybe too tight that it strangles
Or too loose to protect
I can't help but wait

I look at you and my heart tells me to hold on a little longer
But why? ..............why do i fight with my emotions
When this should be the easiest decision
How come it feels so wrong yet so right?
Does love even matter anymore, does it remember am alive
Does love consider, does it come to the unlovable?
Does it last for eternity?
I cant love you just for a lifetime
I wanna love you for eternity
But why do i feel lost?
I can't help but wait

I have trusted before, loved before, cared for before
But it never lasted
Betrayal.........fear of getting hurt, my tender heart can't handle it
I have given and been misused but i held on
Now my cords are rotting the line looks loose
Will i fall?
I do not know if this is another unsafe zone, another mis-use
With my heart so tender i can't try anymore
I can't help but wait
Wait on Him and Him alone
I can't help but wait
