Time moves like honey when you're not around
Every minute feels like hours now
I'm counting heartbeats till you come back home

Morning breaks and I reach for where you used to be
Empty sheets hold the memory of everything we shared
My coffee tastes different when I drink alone
But I know you're coming back to me

I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you
Like the ocean waits for morning tide
I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you
With my heart stretched open wide

Every sunrise brings me closer
To the moment you'll return
Every sunset makes me stronger
For the love that makes me burn

Neighbors ask me how I'm holding up these days
I just smile and tell them that you'll be back soon
Your favorite chair still faces toward the door
I saved your place, I always do

I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you
Like the ocean waits for morning tide
I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you
With my heart stretched open wide

Every sunrise brings me closer
To the moment you'll return
Every sunset makes me stronger
For the love that makes me burn

Friends keep saying I should get back out there
Fill my time with parties and new faces
But they don't understand what we have built
No one else could take your place

I wear your sweater when the nights get cold
Keep your picture close beside my bed
Sometimes I pretend you're just downstairs
Making breakfast like you always did

Distance is just distance
Time is just a test
What we have together
Is stronger than the rest

I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you
Like the ocean waits for morning tide
I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you
With my heart stretched open wide

Every sunrise brings me closer
To the moment you'll return
Every sunset makes me stronger
For the love that makes me burn

When you walked away that summer morning
Promised me you'd find your way back home
Now the seasons change around me
But my heart stays where you've always known

Letters come but they're not quite enough
Your handwriting makes me miss your touch
I trace the words you wrote about tomorrow
When we'll never have to be apart

Sometimes I drive past our old favorite places
See the spot where we carved both our names
Every landmark holds a piece of what we were
And what we're gonna be again

I can feel it in the air now
Something's shifting with the wind
All this waiting's almost over
My new life's about to begin

Pack my bags and clean the house from top to bottom
Make sure everything's exactly how you like it
Your favorite flowers blooming in the garden
Dinner waiting on the stove tonight

Got the call at half past seven
You'll be on the morning train
All these months of separation
Finally coming to an end

There you are walking through the doorway
Just the way I pictured in my mind
All the time that stretched between us
Disappears without a trace

I was waiting for you, I was waiting for you
Like the ocean waits for morning tide
I was waiting for you, I was waiting for you
With my heart stretched open wide

Every sunrise brought me closer
To the moment you returned
Every sunset made me stronger
For the love that makes me burn

Now you're here and I'm complete again
Time moves normal, everything's in place
I would wait a thousand lifetimes
Just to see you smile again
