Struggling with Lazy Eye? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
I've been waiting I've been waiting for this moment all my life But it's not quite right And this real It's impossible if possible At whose blind word So clear but so unheard I've been waiting I've been waiting for this silence all night long It's just a matter of time To appear sad With the same old decent lazy eye Fixed to rest on you Aim free and so untrue Everyone's so intimately rearranged Everyone's so focused clearly with such shine Everyone's so intimately rearranged Everyone's so focused clearly with such shine Lost and loaded Still the same old decent lazy eye Straight through your gaze That's why I said I relate I said we relate It's so fun to relate It's the room, the sun, and the sky The room, the sun, and the sky I've been waiting I've been waiting for this moment
