The Answer You Wanted Lyrics

I've never been quite the answer you wanted; just a reflection you could sing but never believe in.
And I know it doesn't sound grown up now, but someday when I'm older I'd like to think I made the best
of the life given to me; no time for catching up tonight.
(Tonight) I've just got to make this different.

So would you let me know I'm not just dreaming?
Please just say so.
If I can do this, please just say I'm not all over yet.

I should've learned by now to keep a safe distance, 'cause i'm never sure if I could follow through, but
Somehow, I got this idea that tomorrow is worth anything I make it, but for now I'm making sure i never forget you.

No, I'm not just dreaming. Please just say so.
If I can do this, please just say I'm not all over yet.

So if it's what you want, don't ever hesitate to take it, 'cause I'll never know what's right for you.
And if you think it's worthwhile, carry on home.
After all you know i never want to hold you back
