I'm walking to the subway In these maroon jeans of mine As i step down the dark stairwell I wonder why I even tried
Every step I take Reminds me what we were Love has become a lonely word I wish I'd never heard
Eventually I reach the bottom Pass the booth, grab a ticket, through the gate I've got an emptiness inside me That I figured out too late
Holding a ticket going somewhere Somewhere I don't even know I'll sit and wait and lose myself Singing all alone
This was supposed to be we Not you ever without me and Now I'm sitting here still singing The words of this song I’m still waiting, here still waiting For you To come home
Waiting isn’t something I’ve been accustomed to Never even thought how I’d lost sight of you We’d walk and walk for hours On those concrete slabs Looking for something in ourselves Born to be legends
But the sidewalks finally ended And now so have we You stepped over to the other side Leaving me to be Never pictured it quite like this With nowhere left to go Now the day’s finally come upon me Hope the tears dry on their own
This was supposed to be we Not you ever without me and Now I'm sitting here still singing The words of this song I’m still waiting, here still waiting For you
