Don't Wait For Me

(album: Backstreet Symphony - 1990)

Now I look out my window
To the street so far below
And I pray I'll see you approaching
Don't know why you had to go
It's been so long but I feel no better
I've gotta say I'm still so alone
Will I ever get used to this feeling
And the nights so long and cold

When all I want to do is hold you
But all I see to do is cry
And all you had to say the day you walked away
Was Don't wait for me, goodbye

All my friends they smile when they see me
I guess they know what I'm going through
They don't mention your name to protect me
Now what am I supposed to do?

When all I want to do is hold you
But all I see to do is cry
And the last thing that you said
and it's ringing round my head
Was Don't wait for me, goodbye

How can I replace you?
How am I gonna get through every night?
All the time I wasted
All the pain I tasted for you
I'm losing my mind.....

All I want to do is hold you
But all I see to do is cry
And all you had to say the day you walked away
Was Don't wait for me, goodbye
