  • I won't talk, I won't breathe
    I won't move 'til you finally see
    That you belong with me

    You might think I don't look
    But deep inside, in the corner of my mind
    I'm attached to you, mmm

    I'm weak, it's true
    Cause I'm afraid to know the answer
    Do you want me too?
    Cause my heart keeps falling faster

    I've waited all my life
    To cross this line
    To the only thing that's true

    So I will not hide, it's time to try
    Anything to be with you
    All my life I've waited
    This is true

    You don't know what you do
    Every time you walk into the room
    I'm afraid to move

    I'm weak, it's true
    I'm just scared to know the ending
    Do you see me too?
    Do you even know you met me?

    I've waited all my life
    To cross this line
    To the only thing that's true

    So I will not hide, it's time to try
    Anything to be with you
    All my life I've waited
    This is true

    I know when I go
    I'll be on my way to you
    The way that's true...

    I've waited all my life
    To cross this line
    To the only thing that's true

    So I will not hide, it's time to try
    Anything to be with you
    All my life I've waited
    This is true Writer/s: JIMMY HARRY, RYAN CABRERA, SHEPPARD J SOLOMON

  • Siahara Shyne Carter from United StatesFavorite 1st part of the Chorus is Fire;

    "I've waited all my life To cross this line To the only thing that's true"
  • Eugene from Minneapolis, MnThis was the #1 song on my charts of 2005! And then after that I did not hear anymore good songs from Ryan Cabrera sadly. Amazing he is one of those artists that I just ignore.
  • Mike from Santa Barbara, CaWas this written for Ashlee Simpson, whom he was dating at the time?
  • Faith from Perth, Australiai don't disagree but i think the lyrics are really sweet and meaningful. I wouldn't mind if a girl wrote this for me. but i admit it would be kind of freaky.
  • Jack&jill from Went Up The Hill, DenmarkThis song is ACTUALLY about how ryan wants to get his gay lover to take him back. It's really obvious. C'mon, what kind of straight guy actually spends so much time picking out his clothes and doing his hair? I am a female and I don't spend that much time trying to look good. i guess i just come to me natually.
