lyrics

I stood on the line
Pushed for more although you've given me all you could
I could have been a better friend
and for that I'm so sorry
I need boundaries for the boundless love I have inside me
Won't you guide me to a place that's safe for both of us
You have my trust
I want your trust
I want what's best for both of us
I want what's best for both of us

I'm still on the line
The dial tone is getting cold
I'm over it
Feeling so damn close to it
And then I hear a click
Patience is the song I've sung
I'll sing it till the day is done
I'll sing it till I feel someone who's feeling me
Who gets the way I breathe
Who gets what I mean when I mean
To make a move and move something

But it's okay
I'm an understanding human
And I want to be a better friend
Like you've been
Just give me time
To tend to what is within
So I can be a better friend
Like you've been
