I will wait for you

I will wait for you
To see my smiling face
And watch you walk on by
I will wait for you
To see me again
And decide to smile back this time
I will wait for you
To hear my laugh
And stop mid sentence to listen again
I will wait for you
To watch me leave
And wish you had taken the chance
I will wait for you
To think of me one day
When something makes you smile
I will wait for you
And the chance to eventually come
When you finally ask me to dance
I will wait for you
To smell the scent of my shampoo
And hold me close while the next song starts again
I will wait for you
To fall so madly in love
And realize that I’m the one
I will wait for you
To finally say “I do”
And make me the happiest woman alive
I will wait for you
No matter how long it takes
I will wait for you

Every day

Every day I get stronger
And I don’t pick up the phone to call
I don’t let the songs make me cry
And when looking out the window
Reminds me of you I look the other way

Every day I get stronger
And I try to think of other men
I remember this is the best thing for me
And for you and your family
Letting you go isn’t something
That I want to do again

Every day I get stronger
And I notice that I’m not thinking of you
Quite as often as I used to
I have hope that someone might equal you
And I’m ok without all you gave me
For now, till the right man comes along

Every day I get stronger
And start over fresh and new
With a clear mind and happy heart
And my life goes on without you there
I hope one day you understand
I don’t have any choice about it
Every day I get stronger
