John Butler Trio - Waited For You lyrics

Said it once and you know I can say it again You are the best thing that ever came into my life So why do I always got to defend you from yourself Standing guard over slow suicide? Did you really think that I just compromised? No, I waited for you, I waited for you Did you think I stumbled into you In the dark with closed eyes? No, I waited for you, I waited for you I know you could see what I can see If you just had my eyes I know I could be what I wanted to be If I just believed you You know I know this is just another bad leak We've got hills to climb Hills to climb Hills to climb Said it once and I know I can say it again You have a gift as bright as that sun does shine But to stand in the shadows that you cast on the offense Can't walk through this blessed life like you were blind Did you really think that I just compromised? No, I waited for you, I waited for you Did you think I stumbled into you In the dark with closed eyes? No, I waited for you, I waited for you Just another lackey tip man and you were my prize No, I waited for you, I waited for you I was just a cold night waiting for the sun to rise Yes I waited for you, I waited for you I know you could see what I can see If you just had my eyes You know I know I could be what I wanted to be If I just believed you You know I know this is just another bad leak We've got hills to climb Hills to climb Hills to climb Hills to climb Hills to climb Hills to climb Hills to climb Hills to climb Oh, what do we want to be? Just what we want is to see But we're blind But we're blind Oh sweet tragedy Oh, such a pity Such a crime Such a crime Oh
