Right Here Waiting

Oceans apart

My eyes fill with tears again.

Day after day

How long has it been since I last saw your smile?

And I slowly go insane

Since I last heard your crazy logic and your funny lines.

I hear your voice on the line

"Claire! CLAIRE!" I hear your voice screaming. But it's not you. It's -

But it doesn't stop the pain

Someone unties me. "Claire, honey." It's Kate. It stings as the blood runs free.

If I see you next to never

I will never see you again. Ever.

How can we say forever

"I LOVE YOU CLAIRE!" That was the last I heard you say. Your last words.

Wherever you go

How can I go on?

Whatever you do

The night before, we were sitting there, you sang to me. Richard Marx, my favourite.

I will be right here waiting for you

And you promised you'd always be here.

Whatever it takes

I told him I'd give everything I owned, I'd give him myself if he'd just let you go free.

Or how my heart breaks

But he ignored me. And my heart is in pieces.

I will be right here waiting for you

Kate leads me out and I hear a man's voice. "Is she ok?"

I took for granted,all the times

I laughed in your face when you told me, said as soon as we got off you'd forget.

That I thought would last somehow

But you'll never forget. Because you'll never leave.

I hear the laughter,I taste the tears

"Charlie?" I whisper. "No, it's me. Micheal."

But I can't get near you now

"I want Charlie!" I sob. I run into the forest, blinded by tears.

Oh,can't you see it baby

Someone catches me in their arms. It's Locke.

You've got me goin' crazy

"Come on, Claire." Kate says. There are tears in her eyes.

Wherever you go

So I follow. For Kate's sake.

Whatever you do

They talk to me as they lead me back. They say Walt's got a surprise for me.

I will be right here waiting for you

I wish you'd be there, right here waiting for me.

Whatever it takes

But you can't. You broke your promise.

Or how my heart breaks

I cry. Buckets. All three of them must be soaked.

I will be right here waiting for you

I think I feel your playful tap on the head, but there's nothing there.

I wonder how we can survive

I can't survive, Charlie. Not without you.

This romance

Last night. Last night, I agreed. I said I'd give our relationship a go.

But in the end if I'm with you

Please. If Charlie can't be here, then let me go to him.

I'll take the chance

"She's back!" I hear Shannon cry. People crowd, hugging me.

Oh,can't you see it baby

Walt pushes himself to the front.

You've got me goin' crazy

"Miss," He says, looking up at me with his brown eyes.

Wherever you go

"Go with Walt, Claire. He's got something to show you." I feel someone push my back. Sawyer.

Whatever you do

I follow blindly. Suddenly, Walt gives me a hug.

I will be right here waiting for you

We round the corner. "Where are you taking me?"

Whatever it takes

"You'll see." And I do see. It's all I see.

Or how my heart breaks

I run to you, hugging you. I feel your strong arms around me. I feel you keeping me safe.

I will be right here waiting for you

I should have known. You would always keep your promise.

What do you think? Rubbish, isn't it? R&R!
