Watching and waiting
I'm standing outside in the cold for you
Scratching and holding on to something
That wasn't mine to lose
Maybe your heart
Was only made for beating
And you
Never let me know
So when you walk on by
Don't wait up for me
You know I tried but I,
I could never change your mind
If there's no better place
We could have run to
Then I won't waste your time
I'll let you walk on by
Just for a moment, I know
That you forgot it's crazy too
Sold for a second
Out in the snow, I took this photo of you
A day at a time
No hold on tomorrow
That's why
We have to let it go
So when you walk on by
Don't wait up for me
You know I tried but I
I could never change your mind
If there's no better place
We could have run to
Then I won't waste your time
I'll let you walk on by
But if I had the chance
I'd make it up again
To see you in the lights
On 38th and 9th
Not how to remember it
Those words you left me with
Now when you walk on by
You don't wait up for me
You know I tried but I
I could never change your mind
There was never a way that we
Could ever stay here
I guess we've spent our time
So I'll let you walk on by
