Ooooo I sit on the steps, my heart in my hands Watching him walk by, he doesn’t understand The way he moves, like the world’s in his eyes But he never sees me, no matter how I try Every glance, every sigh I’m just a shadow passing by He’s the sun, I’m the rain Lost in this quiet, aching pain Oh, I’m waiting, hoping, dreaming But he doesn’t see me leaning On these steps, where my love lies still I’m invisible, against my will The office buzzes, the hours fade I steal a glance when he looks away Coffee cups and papers piled But my heart beats wild every time he smiles Every word, every sound Feels like my heart’s breaking down He’s so close, yet so far I’m stuck in this love, a fading star Oh, I’m waiting, hoping, dreaming But he doesn’t see me leaning On these steps, where my love lies still I’m invisible, against my will Maybe one day, he’ll turn around See the love that’s been waiting, bound But until then, I’ll stay right here On these steps, hiding every tear Oh, I’m waiting, hoping, dreaming But he doesn’t see me leaning On these steps, where my love lies still I’m invisible, against my will I sit on the steps, the day fades to night Hoping that one day, I’ll step into his light
