pacing up and down
over and over again
counting down the minutes
until your arrival

looking at the phone
for the hundredth time
my hands automatically
dial your number

disconnecting the line right away
unable to bear the silence
i switch the phone off
to stop me from calling you

barely a minute had passed
what if you had called?
what if you had messaged?
the phone is switched back on!

with the time slowly ticking by
i think about lifting you from the office chair
and like a superman
flying you to this place right away

patience, i tell myself
with my patience is at its breaking point
i catch a glimpse of your wavy black hair
sending my heart on a wild spin

what am i supposed to do
when you say those words?
how do i react?
how do you expect me to react?

standing here
watching you come closer,
one look into your eyes
i find the reason to live life again!

i could hardly believe it
when i heard what you said
i couldnt wait till the evening
to hear it straight from you

tell me what do i do
now that the things which i only dreamt of
are going to come true
tell what do i do

evening now looks so far away
time has slowed down to a crawl
in one single moment
my life has changed

living life as it came
i had only dreams
i had only dreams
of you and me together

my bravery had gone into hiding
when it came to telling you
what my heart has been shouting
silently since i met you

all my dreams
all that i had hoped for
is just a single spark away
either it could fizzle out
or burst into a spectacular fireworks display

tell me,
how am i supposed to live
what am i supposed to do
till you come near
