I never saw it coming, somehow I never knew

The last one to know that you were on to something new



Tried to say I was sorry for the things I did

Apologies fall flat, I watch my words drop dead

You're so far ahead of me



Wait

I'm coming

Wait

Stop running away



I wake from a dream not knowing if it's all too real

I watch the world go rushing by; I'm standing still



Try to catch the wave you're riding, sliding down

Carries you away; on me it's crashing down

I'm reaching out to you



Wait

I'm coming

Wait

Stop running away



Wait, wait, wait

Wait, wait, wait



These baby steps seem shy as you go bounding by

And as I rise to run you're taking off to fly

If I catch your eye won't you



Wait

I'm coming

Wait

Stop running away
