All My Life Lyrics

There's been an awful lot of talk these days
About the damage that's been done and all the things that I say.
I stand tall and accept the blame,
If it'll make it any easier to walk away (from us).
I never tried to bring out any pain but the situation doesn't seem to lead to gain,
So how do I compromise when I see the degradation that's inside your eyes?

But you don't even know my name.

I've waited all my life to find a way to stop you as you're walking by,
But you never saw the signs shouting out for you to not leave me behind.

I never shied away from the light,
I've never been the kind of person to avoid a fight,
So why won't you realize there's a reason I'm continuing to fantasise (about us)?
I think about you every day,
It's the only thing that seems to melt the pain away,
So why can't you realize there's a feeling that I feel when I look in your eyes?

But you don't even know my name.

I've waited all my life to find a way to stop you as you're walking by,
But you never saw the signs shouting out for you to not leave me behind.

I need to know your name,
I think that we're one in the same.

I've waited all my life,
But you never saw the signs.

I've waited all my life to find a way to stop you as you're walking by,
But you never saw the signs shouting out for you to not leave me behind.

I've waited all my life to find a way to stop you as you're walking by,
But you never saw the signs shouting out for you to not leave me behind.
