We keep going back and forth
I am tired of playing tennis
Tell me if you really want this
I can’t keep putting you first
I wish we had the same thirst
I am tired of being third
How long will we play
Before one of us flees
Because someone always leaves
This time I don’t want to go
I don’t ever want to be your foe
I want to stay with you
You have your walls high
Never giving too much
That’s why we’re out of touch
Out of sight but not out of mind
You know I wish you were mine
And not someone else’s dime
Your heart has space for one
I know she’s the one for you
I wish that could be undone
It is never the right time for us
I wish I could trust and not fuss
But I know this is all superfluous
If you ever love again
I want to be her
I hope this waiting isn’t in vain.
