Lyrics
V1
Will I ever catch you staring at me when I'm not looking?
And will I ever hear you compliment me without prompting?
Cuz I'm holding out for signs
Of Love in full play
And we haven't got much time
Cuz the wall is well underway
V2
You say it's b/c you wait a while to let someone in
Whereas I let welcome them in, instantaneously trusting
And I'm doing what I can to reach you today
But with every withheld hand
This wall is well underway
Bridge
Maybe we'll meet in the middle
At the closest we can be
But it will never be the closeness that I crave
When your opening meets my closing
It will be too late
V
You say, you're more tender in my presence than with the others
How did they ever stand it, you know I really have to wonder
And I'm holding out for signs of Love in full play
But we haven't got much time
Cuz my wall is well underway
Repeat Bridge
V
So I do not linger quite as long now when we're kissing
Nor do I lift a finger, can you feel how much you're missing?
Cuz I waited for the signs of Love on its way
But you took your precious time
And now this wall is near completion
