I miss the 'waiting' you used to make me do.
It used to be my favorite thing to do.
Yes, especially when you were late, or so late I can even forget I did nothing but just wait for you.

I miss the times we were sending SMS's
when I waited, sending tens of messages before you can reply a one-liner.
I also miss those feelings I had when you don't answer your phone,
when I try to call you numerous times...and all i hear is the annoying ring
to let me know you are reachable but just not bothering..
the ones I ended up waiting until the entire day ended,
And had to wait again to hear your sweetest apology that have always worked.

It's crazy, but I loved that waiting until you come home.
When you used to tell me to wait for a few minutes, but ended up waiting for an hour more.
Weren't this the very thing I used to do too, when you were still asking me out?
I guess you turned the table, and how I didn't mind about that because I was already there,
Revolving around you.

Time wasn't precious spending them to wait for you for lunch, wait for you for dinner, even wait for you to know I was waiting.
But seeing you finally come, I remember the feeling of gladness waiting brings!
It's like the feeling you have when you experience a miracle when you don't even deserve it.

Yes, I miss being the one waiting for you,
and the times I felt that I was just the only one waiting for you.
Thought all those waiting I did, weren't a waste, but rather,
A training ground for my upcoming occupation..
So optimistic of me..
I've always thought they'd prepare me to face the biggest wait in the history of loving you.
The wait that you'd finally choose me.

But you Didn't.
The funny thing is, there's Still a strong drive inside of me now that pushes me to wait even more...
Wait to prove my doubt right or wrong.
How long would that be then? I don't know.
This whole 'loving you' thing is so powerful it could steal my time.
It doesn't seem to see that time flies.
It doesn't seem to feel the overtime and no alarm sound would seem to wake it up.
so it moves on...
As you sail away today,
my heart is in dismay

thoughts of you rush like waves in the sea.
my eyes close, i feel the warm breeze around me
i wish your arms wrap me before you go..
you know our time apart is my only foe!

As you sail away today,
i'd start counting every single day

as the blades spin around you move forward
I know you're worth the wait, i'll have my reward
Sun shines, sun sets, each one brings me closer
To the time when missing you is finally over


As you sail away today
i'd sing a song and pray

i'd blow kisses in the winds to reach you..
i'd sit like a log and wait for you...
for you left me a promise my dear so clear
may you'll answer my heart's only whisper

*As you sail away today...
They say, if you know how to do the wrong things the right way,
Dare...

They say if you want to enter a dark cave you've never been to before,
And that you believe within yourself you could come out alive,
Dare...

They say if you can take pleasure living with illusion
Then Dare to forget reality for a while
That if you know how to wake up before you fully get hypnotized..
Dare...
Enjoy while the moment lasts...

They say if you love the thrills and adventure,
Play with your life and skydive ten thousand feet without pulling your parachute
Or play around, you can cheat death..
Dare...

For life is about taking risks, living by the edge
And last minute change-gear boosts the adrenaline,
You Only Live Once,  they all say...

But should I dare just because it worked for them?
Should I choose the obscure over what's clearly seen ahead of me?
Should I be scared of their taunts, their laughs over my weakness?
Just because I refuse to join them at the danger zone?

Risks to some is an advantage, an opportunity
They dare with life, i surely admire the guts!
But for me, it's a big dispute, I think I'll pass...
For whether I'd want to try or taste the dope,
Behind there's a bigger matter that is involved...

**And that's something no dare is worth the risk...  
my love for you so far is like a journey..
a long drive down the country road without signs..
no place to name, no destination yet, to go for a rest.
i've been driving a thousand miles, for a hundred days..
and still can drive some more...
the road is endless, the weather's changing i know..
my wheels are old and torn, yet no sharp edge can blow them off.

i've been to the crossroads where your mind cannot choose me..
it's the scariest place on earth i've ever known..
to find you finding me, but looking somewhere else..
you gotta stop the U-turn and follow the No left turn..
because my headlights are calling you, i'm just straight ahead..
i ain't gonna pull over, i ain't gonna stop...
my love sees no red light....
it will keep running, i will keep driving...
i mean no chase...but in my heart , it's you i cannot erase..
