I can't wait around for you to decide
If you want my love yeah, if you need me now, oh
I can't wait around for you to realize
I'm the one for you yeah, I'm the one that's true, oh

I can't wait around for you to recognize
That I feel for you and you make me blue, oh
I can't wait around for you to understand
I'm the one for you and I love you, oh

I can't wait around for you to decide
If you want my love yeah, if you want me now, oh
I can't wait around for you to realize
I'm the one for you yeah, I'm the one that's true, oh

I can't wait around for you to recognize
That I feel for you and you make me blue, oh

Sometimes I feel like I'm at the beginning
Sometimes I feel like I'm at the end come whatever
Sometimes I feel like I'm at the beginning
Sometimes I feel like I'm at the end come whatever

Sometimes I feel like I'm at the beginning
Sometimes I feel like I'm at the end come whatever
