I’ve been wasting time clawing my way to you

Taking no prisoners with my romantic crimes

I’ve been holding out imagining glimpses of you

Holding my breath while you come down the pike

Spinning my wheels ‘round, I’m here dodging bullets ‘til you

Ear to the ground while I’m dodging bullets ‘til you

 

I’ve been taking notes, nursing the thought of you

Research and develop as I’m biding my time

I’ve been holding up this magnet that calls to you

Entertaining myself with these consolation prizes

Spinning my wheels ‘round, I’m here dodging bullets ‘til you

Ear to the ground while I’m dodging bullets ‘til you

 

They’ve been plenty fun, but mere placeholders for you

They fill this dance card as you form in my mind

Spinning my wheels ‘round, I’m here dodging bullets ‘til you

Ear to the ground I’m here dodging bullets ‘til you
