Prove Me Wrong

I guess I've painted quite a gloomy picture

Drought and famine locusts and the rest

I said that we could never be together

But never even once did you protest



I guess I've always seen the glass half empty

And try to keep my expectations low

I'm trying hard not to be disappointed

You know how long these love affairs can go



But though I sit and watch you leave

I will fall to pieces when you go



And I'm waiting for you

Waiting for you

Waiting for you

Waiting for you to prove me wrong



All the air has left the rooms we live in

And never have you felt so far away

Never has the sunlight felt like darkness

And never have we had less to say



But all my silent soldiering

It will fall to pieces when you go



And I'm waiting for you

Waiting for you

Waiting for you

Waiting for you to prove me wrong



I am waiting for you

Prove me wrong



I am waiting for you

Prove me wrong



I am waiting for you

Prove me wrong



...but please don't let me down.
