Laura Overstreet: Have a listen

Ever been tired of being in the 'waiting room' of love? Me too.

I could wait forever for a lifetime, day after day wait just to live
Well I thought I was on the brink, it would all happen soon
And you’d be here in the end

Well I guess I was dreamin, I slept a long long time
I laid there so still I can hardly move
And it’s hard to see the truth for all the lies
I got sleep in my eyes

And I finally figured out that saying you love me
Sounds good but it doesn’t make it so
I lost my place with you the moment I knew
The you you didn’t want me to know

Well I know that I can’t dream the same dream over
I’m awake, the sun’s in the sky
But I guess I’ll get it right eventually
Now there’s sleep in my eyes


I could stay forever like you want me to
Wait patiently by the phone
And wake up once again in a year or two
Still very much alone

But I finally figured out that saying you love me
Sounds good but it doesn’t make it so
I lost my place with you the moment I knew
The you you didn’t want me to know

Well I know that I can’t dream the same dream over
I’m awake, the sun’s in the sky
But I think I’ll get it right eventually
Now there’s sleep in my eyes
