When I heard you two had parted
I felt like the fates were smiling down on me
But when it hit me how she'd left you
so broken-hearted
the pain in your eyes was all I could see
Because how can my heart be happy
when yours is hurting you so
Tell me, how can I be there for you
to help you let go
How can I mend your broken dreams
if you never dream of me
How can I heal your broken heart
until it begins to see
that I'd gladly give my everything
if you'd let me love you now
I'll be waiting in the wings
until you tell me how
Your only mistake was loving with too much faith
So sad to see you give up loving that way again
You know I'd rather die than hurt you like she did that day
And I'll give my love any way (if only as a friend)
So many stars I wished upon
that I could be in her place beside you
But you won't let me find you
You're still a world away
How can I mend your broken dreams
if you never dream of me
How can I heal your broken heart
until it begins to see
that I'd gladly give my everything
if you'd let me love you now
I'll be waiting in the wings
until you tell me how
Don't close your eyes
to the love all around you
because she couldn't give the love
you needed her to
Don't turn away
from love that's so near
because she wouldn't say the words
you wanted to hear
You were meant for something more real
more true
Something you'll have once your heart
gives the cue
Once you see the love you've been waiting for
is waiting for you
The love that mends more than tears
that heals more than hurts
that gives more than takes
is waiting for you
I will mend your broken dreams
and you won't have to dream of me
'Cause I'll be there to heal your heart
And you'll begin to see
that together we have everything
that we could ever need
No more waiting in the wings
once you tell me
