Never loved someone the way that I love you
I always understood and promised you the truth
But you kept walking and I kept wondering
Where we were going

You keep saying change is just around the bend
But I don't think I can believe those words again
When we're on water
It's getting deeper
The ship is sinking

So this is what it feels like to fall from a star
You say you want to be loved but you don't know who you are
Oh, and I've been waiting
Yeah, I've been waiting
But I just can't hold on
Can't hold on anymore

Well, I can't be around or watch you do this to yourself
"Being here for me" just isn't gonna help
And it ain't easy to know you'll need me
And I won't be here

So darling shed a tear, one more before I go
I hate to break your heart but mine is breaking more
And I can't do this
Watch you destroy this
While I still love you

So this is what it feels like to fall from a star
You say you want to be loved but you don't know who you are
Oh, and I've been waiting
Yeah, I've been waiting
But I just can't hold on
Can't hold on anymore

Oh, and I've been waiting
Yeah, I've been waiting
But I just can't hold on
Can't hold on anymore
