I won't forget you tonight, I just want you my dream
I just want to be free, I just want to believe
That I have self esteem, that I will be redeemed
I just want to believe, I just want to believe
I'm getting older
I'm getting tired
Of waiting up all night
Just to fall
down to sleep
Voices whisper that I'll never make it right
6 AM rolls around
Sirens screaming, blue burnt eyes
And I'll fall asleep when the clock strikes noon
But I'm resting on borrowed time
I'm waiting for the day when I can say I love you
I'm waiting for this moment, you're the girl of my dreams
I'm waiting for the day when I can smell your velvet hair
I'm waiting for anyone to be with me tonight
I won't forget you if you waste my life and strand me in the dark
I won't forget you if you postpone every day and break my heart
I won't forget you if you never return any single part of my livelihood
My dreams were good, I loved you from the start
But when all this dust has settled I'll be gone too long, too far
I'm waiting for the day when I can say I love you
I'm waiting for this moment, you're the girl of my dreams
I'm waiting for the day when I can smell your velvet hair
I'm waiting for anyone to be with me tonight
You're still the same as ever I know that you'll be just who I want
You're still the same and I won't change, I'll remain where I've come from
You're still the same, no I can't forget who changed my stoic mind
As you should, my bones are wood, I loved you from the start.
But when all this dust has settled you'll be gone too long, too far
I'm waiting for the day when I can say I love someone
I'm waiting for that moment, for the girl of my dreams
She's not real, no, no, no, no, not, not yet
I won't forget you, I won't forget the way you move
I won't forget you, I won't forget the way you move
I won't forget you, I won't forget the way you
Move me
