[Verse 1]
I sit and watch you struggle to love him,
It’s clear your future is looking grim.
He’s one fellow you need to trim,
What is love if he cheats at every whim.
[Verse 2]
You know my feelings for you are real,
And though I sit in the shadows still,
I’ll never give up on chasing the thrill,
Of marrying you like I know I will.
[Prechorus]
It’s clear to see you’ve made a mistake,
Time to cut your losses, before it’s too late.
[Chorus]
Good girls love bad boys for all the wrong reasons,
It’s true in every town and in all the seasons.
You may have fallen for a heartthrob heathen,
But I’m not giving up, I won’t be beaten.
[Refrain] [harmonized male vocals]
I’m waiting on the sidelines of your life!
And I’m not leaving until we’re husband and wife!
[Verse 3]
As sunrays dance and bob across your face,
It wraps your perfect curves in golden lace.
You stand within the sunbeam bright and still,
A beauty this morning light will never fill.
[Verse 4]
Through every silence, coldness, and doubt,
I’ll hold this flame till the darkness burns out.
Though your heart is guarded and distant today,
I’ll love you until you see things my way.
[Prechorus]
It’s clear to see you’ve made a mistake,
Time to cut your losses, before it’s too late.
[Chorus]
Good girls love bad boys for all the wrong reasons,
It’s true in every town and in all the seasons.
You may have fallen for a heartthrob heathen,
But I’m not giving up, I won’t be beaten.
[Refrain] [harmonized male vocals]
I’m waiting on the sidelines of your life!
And I’m not leaving until we’re husband and wife!
[Outro]
Once he’s gone and there’s not a trace,
You’ll feel my hands caressing your face,
Cause I’ll be waiting on the sidelines of your life!
And I won’t stop waiting until we’re husband and wife!
until we are husband and wife
until we are husband and wife
until we are husband and wifeeeeeee
until we’re husband and wife
until (trailing off in volume) hmmm (fade out)
