There you go looking cool,
Writing rules
For your theories of romance.

I know that you doubt me,
But without me
You'd be tearing off your one chance.


It's getting ridiculous.

Both of us so afraid of screwing up a long friendship and a fantastic working relationship, that we torture ourselves.

We've been doing it since the day we first met.


Wait and see,
This could be the last time for me.
Baby, just wait and see.

All the times
I came running back
Down the path of the least resistance.


We're so different, and yet we seem to fit together in so many ways.

I'm tired of waiting.

I'm tired of pretending that I don't feel something, when I do.

I'm tired of staying quiet because I'm afraid I'll scare him.


All the times
I came running back
Down the path of the least resistance.
I felt my body
Was just a hobby
For your heart's indifference.


And that's the truth. For both of us.

For two people who have been through so much, both together and individually, we're both two of the biggest cowards in the world.

It's like going round on an endless merry go round. The old adage, two steps forward, one step back.

One moves, the other pulls back.


Wait and see,
This could be the last time for me.
Now baby, can't you wait and see?
Just you wait and see.
Just you wait and see.
Wait and see.


Of course, Mr 'I'm so Dense That I Can't Tell That All The Women in The Lab Fawn Over Me" decided it would be smart to send me out of town on a conference for two days.

Naturally, he only remembers to tell me the night before I have to leave, so I'm leaving Lindsey with Nancy.

At least this time away gives me time to think.

Time to think how I'm going to act.


I've been trapped by your innocence,
Haven't seen you since
You caught me, baby.
Shot down by the one I love,
Now I'm taking off
With the things you taught me.


Everything has to change.

The merry go round has to stop and I have to get off it.

Because it's giving me motion sickness.


Wait and see,
This could be the last time for me.
Now baby, can't you wait and see?
Just you wait and see.
Just you wait and see.
Wait and see.
