Why is he so wrong
Yet he happens to be right
My days last so long
Waiting for him to come into sight

How do you know
When the pieces are in place
Everything is just so
You know you've won the race

The answer as I see it
Is indefinite and unsure
Hopefully my candle will be lit
I won't have to yearn anymore

I don't know who will provide
This comfort that I need
Foolishly I run and hide
Scared of my own greed

Do I truly deserve
To soothe this aching hunger
Instead I'll build my reserve
And search forever longer

Assuming this is my quest in life
To find that certain someone
I guess anything worthwhile causes strife
I just don't want to forget how to have fun
