Waited For You Lyrics - John Butler Trio

Said it once and you know I can say it again 

You are the best thing that ever came into my life 

So why do I always got to defend you from yourself 

Standing guard over slow suicide? 

Did you really think that I just compromised? 

No, I waited for you, I waited for you 

Did you think I stumbled into you 

In the dark with closed eyes? 

No, I waited for you, I waited for you 

I know you could see what I can see 

If you just had my eyes 

I know I could be what I wanted to be 

If I just believed you 

You know I know this is just another bad leak

We've got hills to climb 

Hills to climb 

Hills to climb 

Said it once and I know I can say it again 

You have a gift as bright as that sun does shine 

But to stand in the shadows that you cast on the offense 

Can't walk through this blessed life like you were blind 

Did you really think that I just compromised? 

No, I waited for you, I waited for you 

Did you think I stumbled into you 

In the dark with closed eyes? 

No, I waited for you, I waited for you 

Just another lackey tip man and you were my prize 

No, I waited for you, I waited for you 

I was just a cold night waiting for the sun to rise 

Yes I waited for you, I waited for you

I know you could see what I can see 

If you just had my eyes 

You know I know I could be what I wanted to be 

If I just believed you 

You know I know this is just another bad leak 

We've got hills to climb 

Hills to climb 

Hills to climb 

Hills to climb 

Hills to climb 

Hills to climb 

Hills to climb 

Hills to climb 

Oh, what do we want to be? 

Just what we want is to see 

But we're blind 

But we're blind 

Oh sweet tragedy 

Oh, such a pity 

Such a crime 

Such a crime 

Oh
