a song for her


Sitting, Waiting, Wishing by Jack Johnson

Now I was sitting waiting wishing
That you believed in superstitions
Then maybe you'd see the signs
But Lord knows that this world is cruel
And I ain't the Lord, no I'm just a fool
Learning loving somebody don't make them love you

Must I always be waiting waiting on you?
Must I always be playing playing your fool?

I sing ya songs I dance a dance
I gave ya friends all a chance
Putting up with them wasn't worth never having you
And maybe you been through this before
But its my first time
So please ignore
The next few lines cause they're directed at you

I cant always be waiting waiting on you
I cant always be playing playing your fool
I keep playing your part
But its not my scene
Wont this plot not twist?
I've had enough mystery.
Keep building me up, then shooting me down
Well im already down
Just wait a minute
Just sitting waiting
Just wait a minute
Just sitting waiting

Well if I was in your position
Id put down all my ammunition
I'd wondered why'd it taken me so long
But Lord knows that I'm not you
And If I was I wouldn't be so cruel
Cause waiting on love ain't so easy to do

Must I always be waiting waiting on you?
Must I always be playing playing your fool?
No I cant always be waiting waiting on you
I cant always be playing playing your fool, foool

some mad hopes

expecting nothing the world couldn't give
may be too much to ask
but who knows
the world could be generous
openhanded enough to let me see for the first time
the sunshine that illuminates my murky daylights

paused and struck by the instance of unsupposed meeting
i felt helpless and numb and just did nothing but stared
pretending to be cool but in reality, intensified
in my thoughts
seeing you that night, made it brighter as the day

if you give some mad hopes for me
i would be likely fine and alright

overlook


remember the very first day i saw you
i thought it was just an ordinary sunlight hour
not until having noticed you
and looking away from you seems hard and sour

stunned by your unique grace
i feel like i'm in a special place
there we build bridges instead of walls
and eagerly listens to each other's calls

you look so beautiful that day
so i try to find every pleasant words
that i could somehow say
but then when i saw you sitting there
girl, it just felt you're so far away

being a stranger to you is tough
just having to look at you and not talk is not enough
even supposing i wanted to
but my insecurity tells me not to

if only i had the moral fiber to risk myself
from being ignored and discarded
and just let my mouth say something
to which my mind and my heart can't stand
i would have known and proven to myself
that i don't lack the chance

defeated by fear
ignored by uncertainties
eager to see you again
and swear never to blow every opportunity
because i know by now
that i cannot be lonely anymore
knowing you as the person i like to be alone with
and to see you liking me back
is like seeing life at its best
and say we can do better
than just being fond of one another

hope to see you again soon...
